Respondida Exchange Mailbox Provisioning for Existing Users Clarification?

    Because of the way workflow works here, we will just about always be using ILM (ILM 2007) to provision exchange accounts well after we have already provisioned the AD account.

    I've read Carol's excellent notes here as well as the other items I could find about Exchange mailbox provisioning.  (Thanks!)

    But I'm still a little fuzzy about what exactly is going on with the exchange account/mailbox creation.  I wonder if someone please confirm that my understanding below is correct?

    Scenario 1: For Exchange 2003 or 2003/2007 hybrid: (our current environment)

    1) Leave "Enable Exchange 2007 Provisioning" unchecked.

    2) When an existing AD user needs a mailbox,  use flow rules to set the four required Exchange attributes in the AD MA.

    3) RUS updates Exchange with the AD attributes.  And Exchange creates the mailbox for the user when the first Exchange activity takes place for the user.


    Scenario 2: For an Exchange 2007-only environment (soon)

    1) Set "Enable Exchange 2007 Provisioning" to checked.

    2) When an existing user needs a mailbox,  use flow rules to set the four required exchange attributes in the AD MA.

    3) On Export, the AD MA calls the Exchange powershell utilities when it detects changes in the exchange attributes to complete the creation of the Exchange mailbox.  (Or maybe the Exchange 2007 powershell utils are called by ILM only when a new AD user also needs to be created?)

    If someone could clear this up for me I would really appreciate it.

    Thanks,

    Al
