After upgrade, this object cannot be managed by a previous version of Exchange System Manager. Do you want to continue to upgrade and save the object?" This confirmation occurs when you upgrade a GAL that was created in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server.

If a value for RecipientContainer isn't specified, the default search filter is the location of the dynamic distribution group in Active Directory.

RecipientFilter

Optional

System.String

The RecipientFilter parameter specifies a filter for recipients to include in the GAL. You can't use this parameter if you use any of the following filter parameters:

  • ConditionalCompany

  • ConditionalDepartment

  • IncludedRecipients

  • ConditionalStateorProvince

You must use either this parameter or one of the previously listed filter parameters.

For more information about the filterable properties, see Filterable Properties for the -RecipientFilter Parameter.

WhatIf

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The WhatIf switch instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf switch, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf switch.
