As part of an OCS 2007 R2 decommissioning, a migration task is to enable Microsoft Exchange 2010 Outlook Web App and IM integration.
As this was previously configured for OCS Integration I wanted to change the Instant Messaging server name from the OCS 2007 R2 server to the Lync Pool Name.
To change the instant messaging server name I used the following PowerShell commands from the Exchange Management Shell.
To find the OWA virtual Directory
- Get-OwaVirtualDirectory |fl
For a specific server you can use the following command.
(Please note the OWA directory name may be different. Please run the command above to confirm.)
- Get-OwaVirtualDirectory -Identity “<ServerName>owa (default Web Site)” |fl
To change the instant messaging server name use the following command
- set-OwaVirtualDirectory -Identity “<ServerName>owa (default Web Site)” -InstantMessagingServerName <LyncPoolName>
And your done !
