Hi All,
With E15 we have the Frontend & Backends with Scaled deployments.
1. I am working on getting multiple namespaces to work for OWA since we have some political issues.
2. It used to be simple in E2010 where there was no BackEnd dir on mailbox servers, it was straight.
3. I think its good now as well that I can just run the same command to specify what role the OWA Vdir is getting created Via roles.
4. Problem is cant get the cmdlet to work with -Role Switch. Below is the error.
[PS]C:\Windows\system32>New-OwaVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName "My Site" -Server cas1 -Role FrontEnd -WhatIf
Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Role'. Cannot convert value "FrontEnd" to type
"Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.VirtualDirectoryRole". Error: "Unable to match the identifier
name FrontEnd to a valid enumerator name. Specify one of the following enumerator names and try again: ClientAccess,
Mailbox"
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [New-OwaVirtualDirectory], ParameterBindin...mationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,New-OwaVirtualDirectory
+ PSComputerName : cas1.shared.local
>>>>>>. looking at TechNet and PS the parameter can be found as below & is a named position as well. I have tried
1. -Role FrontEnd
2. -Role:$Frontend
3. Don't know what to do ;-)
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-Help New-OwaVirtualDirectory -Parameter role
-Role <ClientAccess | Mailbox>
The Role parameter specifies the configuration that should be used when the virtual directory is created. The
following are the values that can be used with this parameter:
* FrontEnd Configures the virtual directory for use on a Client Access server.
* BackEnd Configures the virtual directory for use on a Mailbox server.
Required? false
Position? Named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
Setup:
5 MBX + HT in DAG (Multi-Site)
6 CAS Servers (Currently Running out of Default Website / Everythin OK Except that I have to run 12 Different OWA's)
...... Phewwwwwwwwwwww.
