Hi, We are implementing a cisco solution for video conferencing, which requires that all the meeting rooms (resource mailboxes) should be in one domain. For this we are looking to move the exchange 2007 resource mailboxes from other domain. We also need to rename these rooms to reflect the v-conf. availability in these rooms. Is it OK to move the mailboxes and rename them? I wanted to know, if renaming the resource mailbox impact the existing meetings scheduled on the room calendar. Will the new name gets updated on the already scheduled meetings? Please suggest the best way to acomplish this. we are on exchange 2007 SP1.

To be honest I dont know the answer. But this is a simple lab thing which u should be able to perform easily and verify. Thanks

You'd have to use the movetree.exe utility or ADMT to do that. Mailboxes are the problem -- it's the AD user object that needs to be moved, and moving between domains changes the DN of the object and, IIRC, its SID. >I wanted to know, if renaming the resource mailbox impact the existing meetings scheduled on the room calendar. I don't think so, but why not create a test room in one domain, schedule some meetings for it, and then rename it? You can use the account to practice moving the user between domains, too. >Will the new name gets updated on the already scheduled meetings? See above. >Please suggest the best way to acomplish this. Well, you could always ask Cisco. They always seem to want to be in control of everything. :-) --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
