what means parameter -mailboxcredenctial
- by cotablise
H3llo,
I am writing regarding the Exchange powershell commands.
When I want to use following cmdlets, I have to insert parameter -mailboxcredential
Test-OwaConnectivity
Test-OutlookWebServices
Test-ImapConnectivity
Test-PopConnectivity
In the Microsoft official site is written:
"The MailboxCredential parameter specifies the mailbox credential for a single URL test."
I am not sure why this parameter is needed... I inserted incorrect credentials, however the command was finished successfully... Could you tell me reason why this parameter is needed ?
Example:
Wrong/incorrect credential
[PS] C:\>Test-WebServicesConnectivity -ClientAccessServer EXhub1 -MailboxCredential (Get-Credential blablabla)
CasServer LocalSite Scenario Result Latency(MS) Error
--------- --------- -------- ------ ----------- -----
EXhub1 Default-Fi... GetFolder Failure [System.Net.WebExcept...
Without parameter:
[PS] C:\>Test-WebServicesConnectivity -ClientAccessServer EXhub1
