Automatic Mailbox Distribution – Exchange 2013
Default Exchange Database for New Users
Applies to Exchange 2010 as well
You can manually create mailboxes in specific Exchange Database using Exchange Management Console; but if you require Exchange to automate this and create New Mailboxes on your preferred mailbox; follow below steps
Lets say you have 3 Mailboxes
Run the below command against each mailbox to see the value for IsExcludedFromProvisioning
-
Get-MailboxDatabase -Server <ServerName>| select Name,ServerName,IsExcludedFromProvisioning
- The databases you want excluded from automatic provisioning of new mailboxes; set the value of IsExcludedProvisioning to false
-
Set-MailboxDatabase "Database Name" -IsExcludedFromProvisioning $false
Thanks for the tip. However I assume you actually mean $true to exclude a database, not $false.
There´s an error in your example – if you want to exclude a db from provisioning you have to use $true
