Convert Linked Mailbox to Room Mailbox
I'm trying to follow the instructions in Microsoft article but it's not working.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb201749(EXCHG.80).aspx
It says to disable the mailbox and reconnect but when I run the command:
Connect-Mailbox -Identity "<MailboxIDParameter>" -Database "<DatabaseIdParameter>" -Room "<UserIdParameter>"
Connect-Mailbox -Identity "<RR Corp Boardroom>" -Database "pobox\SG5\SG5" -Room "RR-CONF-BOARDROOM@us.photomask.com"
I get an error:
Connect-Mailbox : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument
'RR-CONF-BOARDROOM@u
s.photomask.com'.
At line:1 char:16
+ Connect-Mailbox <<<< -Identity "<RR Corp Boardroom>" -Database "pobox\SG5\SG5" -Room "RR-CONF-BO
ARDROOM@us.photomask.com"
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Connect-Mailbox], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.MapiTasks.
ConnectMailbox
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Is the "<UserIdParameter>" supposed to be the alias or username? Neither work for me.

This worked to get the mailbox as a user mailbox.
Connect-Mailbox -Identity "<RR Corp Boardroom>" -Database "pobox\SG5\SG5"
Then I was able to convert to room. I'm still wondering what I did wrong.
