Exchange 2010 : Enable Resource Booking Attendant (in place of auto accept agent)

In a previous article I explained how to install and configure the auto accept agent (for exchange 2003)

Now, you have migrated your users from 2003 to Exchange 2010.

Some of your users was configured with Auto Accept Agent.

You want those users do the same they do in Exchange 2003.

1) Set the attribute IsResource for these users

In Exchange Management Shell, type:

Get-Mailbox -Identity YourMailBox | ft Name, IsResource

If result in IsResource will be FALSE then convert this mailbox with second command:

Set-Mailbox -Identity YourMailBox-Type Room

2) Activate the Resource Booking Attendant on the MailBox

In Exchange Management Console > Recipient Configuration > Mailbox > Properties

You can see now new Resource tabs have appeared.

Hit on Resource General and check "Enable the Resource Booking Attendant..."
 

Hit on Resource Information Tab and configure as you want.
