Exchange Server Organization
A)
Datum has an Exchange Server 2013 organization that contains two servers. The servers are
configured as shown in the following table.
Each server contains 15 mailbox databases.
Users use the name mail.adatum.com to connect to their mailbox from the Internet. The users use the FQDN of
the servers to connect from the internal network.
AM of the users in the Detroit office have a mailbox hosted on EX2.
The default email address policy contains a single email address format of @adatum.com.
A separate Send connector exists for the Chicago office and the New York office. The local servers in each

Problem Statements
A)
Datum identifies the following issues:
Users in the Detroit office report that sometimes, Microsoft Outlook takes a long time to open.
During a recent storage failure, administrators failed to restore the latest backup and lost all of the email
messages from the previous 48 hours.
Users report that the email messages sent to some Internet domains are not received. Users in the Chicago
office report that some of their email messages generate a non-delivery report (NDR).
The help desk in the New York office reports that its most common Exchange-related task is to restore
email messages that were deleted by users more than 14 days ago. The task requires time-consuming
restore operations by the help desk.
Requirements
Business Requirements
A)
Datum wants to provide users with the ability to access their email from Internet Explorer 10, even when the
users are disconnected from the network. This ability must only be available if the users log on to Outlook Web
Access by using the Private option.
Planned Changes
You plan to deploy three additional Exchange Server 2013 servers. The servers will be configured as shown in
the following table.
After the planned deployment, all of the mailboxes of the Detroit office users will be moved to EX3. All of the
Detroit office users will use the name detroitmail.adatum.com when they connect from the Internet and the
name ex4.adatum.com when they connect from the internal network.
Technical Requirements
A)
Datum identifies the following technical requirements:
All existing and future mailboxes must be limited to 5 GB of storage.
Antimalware and anti-spam filtering must be enabled for the entire Exchange Server organization.If storage for the mailbox database fails, administrators must be able to recover email messages handled by
transport services for to the last five days.
Only the members of a group named Executives must be able to schedule meetings in a room mailbox
named Boardroom. Meeting requests must not be moderated.
All of the servers in the New York office that have the Client Access server role installed must be accessed
by using a load balancing solution that can mark a server as down if a specific URL on the server is
unavailable.
Mailbox Creation Requirements
A)
Datum identifies the following requirements for creating new mailboxes:
All mailboxes must automatically have single item recovery enabled.
All mailboxes must automatically have the Exchange ActiveSync feature disabled.

Explanation:
Cmdlet Extension Agents: Exchange 2013 Help
Cmdlet Extension Agents
Cmdlet extension agents are components in Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 invoked by Exchange 2013
cmdlets when the cmdlets run. As the name implies, cmdlet extension agents extend the capabilities of the
cmdlets that invoke them by assisting in processing data or performing additional actions based on the
requirements of the cmdlet. Cmdlet extension agents are available on any server role.
Agents can modify, replace, or extend functionality of Exchange Management Shell cmdlets. An agent can
provide a value for a required parameter that isn’t provided on a command, override a value provided by a user,
perform other actions outside of the cmdlet workflow while a cmdlet runs, and more.
You can use the Scripting agent cmdlet extension agent in Exchange 2013 to insert your own scripting logic into
the execution of Exchange cmdlets. Using the Scripting agent, you can add conditions, override values, and set
up reporting.
Every time an Exchange cmdlet is run, the cmdlet invokes the Scripting agent cmdlet extension agent. When
this agent is invoked, the cmdlet checks whether any scripts are configured to be invoked by the cmdlet. If a
script should be run for a cmdlet, the cmdlet tries to invoke any APIs defined in the script.
The Scripting agent configuration file contains all the scripts that you want the Scripting agent to run. Scripts in
the configuration file are contained within XML tags that define the beginning and end of the script and various
input parameters required to pass data to the script. Scripts are written using Windows PowerShell syntax. The
configuration file is an XML file that uses the elements or attributes in the following table.
Every Exchange 2013 server includes the file ScriptingAgentConfig.xml.sample in the <installation path>\\V15
\\Bin\\CmdletExtensionAgents folder. This file must be renamed to ScriptingAgentConfig.xml on every Exchange
2013 server if you enable the Scripting Agent cmdlet extension agent. The sample configuration file contains
sample scripts that you can use to help you understand how to add scripts to the configuration file.
After you add a script to the configuration file, or if you make a change to the configuration file, you must update
the file on every Exchange 2013 server in your organization. This must be done to make sure that each server
contains an up-to-date version of the scripts that the Scripting Agent cmdlet extension agent runs.
ScriptingAgentConfig.xml
Renamed from ScriptingAgentConfig.xml.sample on every Exchange 2013 server if you enable the Scripting
Agent cmdlet extension agent.
ScrptingAgentConfig.xml.sample
Every Exchange 2013 server includes the file ScriptingAgentConfig.xml.sample in the <installation path>\\V15
\\Bin\\CmdletExtensionAgents folder.
This file must be renamed to ScriptingAgentConfig.xml on every Exchange 2013 server if you enable the
Scripting Agent cmdlet extension agent.
The sample configuration file contains sample scripts that you can use to help you understand how to add
scripts to the configuration file.
Enable-CmdletExtensionAgent “Scripting Agent” command
Use the Enable-CmdletExtensionAgent cmdlet on a server running Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 to enable
a cmdlet extension agent.
EXAMPLE 1 This example enables the Scripting Agent cmdlet extension agent. Before you enable the Scripting
Agent, you need to make sure that you’ve first deployed the ScriptingAgentConfig.xml configuration file to all the
servers in your organization. If you don’t deploy the configuration file first and you enable the Scripting Agent, all
non-Get cmdlets fail when they’re run.
Enable-CmdletExtensionAgent “Scripting Agent”
Run the Set-CmdletExtensionAgent “Scripting Agent” command
Use the Set-CmdletExtensionAgent cmdlet on a server running Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 to modify acmdlet extension agent.
EXAMPLE 1
This example changes the priority of the fictitious “Validation Agent” cmdlet extension agent to 9.
Set-CmdletExtensionAgent “Validation Agent” -Priority 9
STEPS
1. Edit the ScriptingAgentConfig,xml.sample file, and then rename the file as ScriptingAgentConfig.xml
Need to add in your own appropriate scripts
2. Copy the ScriptingAgentConfig.xml file to all of the Mailbox Servers
The question refers to mailbox creation requirements but according to the above information –
After you add a script to the configuration file, or if you make a change to the configuration file, you must update
the file on every Exchange 2013 server in your organization. In the absence of further information, accept
updating the mailbox servers over the client access servers 3.Enable-CmdletExtensionAgent “Scripting Agent”
command Have to enable the cmdlet extension agent.
