Parameters

Use the Start-EdgeSynchronization cmdlet to immediately start synchronization of configuration data from Active Directory to the subscribed Edge Transport servers. The Edge Subscription process subscribes an Edge Transport server to an Active Directory site. The Edge Subscription process replicates data that is stored in Active Directory to the local ADAM store on the Edge Transport server. After the initial replication, one-way synchronization of changed data in Active Directory to Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) keeps this data up to date.

The synchronization of configuration data occurs at one-hour intervals. The synchronization of recipient data occurs at four-hour intervals. If you want to synchronize Active Directory changes to ADAM immediately, run the Start-EdgeSynchronization cmdlet. This cmdlet has no parameters.

To perform the following procedure, you must log on to a Microsoft Exchange 2007 server in the organization by using an account that is delegated the following:

• Exchange Organization Administrator role
  
  

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.

The following example shows how to use the Start-EdgeSynchronization cmdlet to start synchronization of changed data from Active Directory to the subscribed Edge Transport servers.
