Detailed Description
The Disable-UMServer cmdlet sets the status of a Unified Messaging server. A Unified Messaging server has a logical status variable that is controlled by using the enable and disable cmdlets. A Unified Messaging server will not process any new calls unless it is in the enabled state. This status variable lets an administrator start or stop call processing on a Unified Messaging server so that the Unified Messaging server can be brought online or taken offline in a controlled way.
To run the Disable-UMServer cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators group for the target server.
For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.
