Detailed Description

The Get-UMService cmdlet retrieves the properties for a Mailbox server that's running the Microsoft Exchange Unified Messaging service or returns a list of available Mailbox servers from Active Directory. When the cmdlet is used for a single Mailbox server, it returns the Mailbox server properties including MaxCalls, MaxFaxCalls, and UMDialPlans. The properties and their values for the Mailbox 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 Administration Center when you select Server Configuration.

After this task is completed, you can view the parameters and values for a single Mailbox server or a list of all of the Mailbox 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 "Mailbox Server (UM service)" entry in the Unified Messaging Permissions topic.
