The Get-UMServer cmdlet retrieves the properties for a Unified Messaging server or returns a list of available UM servers from Active Directory. When the cmdlet is used for a single UM server, it returns the UM server properties including MaxCalls, MaxFaxCalls, and UMDialPlans. The properties and their values for the UM server are stored in the Unified Messaging section of the Exchange Server configuration object in Active Directory.

The ExchangeVersion attribute that's returned is the minimum version of Microsoft Exchange you can use to manage the returned object. This attribute isn't the same as the version of Microsoft Exchange that's displayed in the Exchange Management Console when you select Server Configuration.

After this task is completed, you can view the parameters and values for a single Unified Messaging server or a list of all of the Unified Messaging servers in Active Directory.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "UM server" entry in the Unified Messaging Permissions topic.

To see the input types that this cmdlet accepts, see Cmdlet Input and Output Types. If the Input Type field for a cmdlet is blank, the cmdlet doesn’t accept input data.

To see the return types, which are also known as output types, that this cmdlet accepts, see Cmdlet Input and Output Types. If the Output Type field is blank, the cmdlet doesn’t return data.
