Who can run this cmdlet: By default, members of the following groups are authorized to run the Update-CsAddressBook cmdlet locally: RTCUniversalUserAdmins, RTCUniversalServerAdmins. To return a list of all the role-based access control (RBAC) roles this cmdlet has been assigned to (including any custom RBAC roles you have created yourself), run the following command from the Windows PowerShell prompt:

Copy Code
Get-CsAdminRole | Where-Object {$_.Cmdlets -match "Update-CsAddressBook"}

The Update-CsAddressBook cmdlet replaces the abserver.exe –syncNow command from Office Communications Server. The cmdlet’s purpose is to initiate a synchronization immediately rather than waiting for the scheduled time. The first example command updates all Address Books in the organization. The second updates only the Address Book associated with the defined server.

For example:

Copy Code
Update-CsAddressBook
Copy Code
Update-CsAddressBook -Fqdn atl-abs-001.contoso.com

For a detailed description of the full command, refer to the following in the main Lync Server Windows PowerShell RTCCmdlets reference.
