You administer a Windows Essential Business Server 2008 environment that is spread across three different locations. Each location has its own Active Directory domain in the same forest. You are configuring the Messaging Server on the network.
You create a new Global Address List (GAL) for each location. You want to populate the new GALs with recipients.
Which cmdiet should you run?
A.
Set-GlobalAddressList
B.
Update-AddressList
C.
Set-AddressList
D.
Update-GlobalAddressList
Explanation:
You should run the Update-GlobalAddressList cmdiet. A GAL is a directory that contains entries for every user, group, and contact within an Exchange Server organization. GALs are displayed in the Microsoft Outlook Address Book on a client computer. You cannot use the Exchange Server Management Console to create, modify, update, or remove GALs. You must always use the Exchange Server Management Shell for these purposes. When you create a new GAL, you are essentially creating a blank container with settings and filters. The container is not populated with recipients until you update the GAL. Therefore, you should run the Update-GlobalAddressList cmdiet to populate the new GALs. When you modify the details of any entity in the GAL, you must update the GAL to reflect the changes in the GAL.You should not run the Set-GlobalAddressList cmdiet. The Set-GlobalAddressList cmdiet is used to modify the attributes in the Active Directory directory service for a GAL. A new created GAL will not be populated until you update the GAL. To update a GAL, the Update-GlobalAddressList cmdiet is used.
You should not run the Update-AddressList cmdiet or the Set-AddressList cmdiet. Address lists are a subset of the GAL and can be used to further organize the recipients in an Exchange organization. You cannot use Address List cmdlets to modify or update GALs.
