You can manage a lot of different aspects of your Office Communications Server installation through the LCSCmd tool. Being a command-line tool, LCSCmd expects you to pass parameters to tell it which aspect - or context - you want to work with. The first parameter of any call to LCSCmd is the context. Here is the list of contexts available for the LCSCmd tool in Office Communications Server 2007 R2.

Available Contexts

Context	Usage
AppServer	Application Host
Archiving	Archiving Server
Cert	Certificates
Config	Configuration Settings
ConfServer	Conferencing Server
CWA	Communicator Web Access
Domain	AD DS
Forest	AD DS
MCU	A/V Conferencing Server , Data Conferencing Server, and Application Sharing Server
MedSrv	Mediation Server
Monitoring	Monitoring Server
Server	Standard Edition server; Enterprise Edition server; Proxy Server; Edge Servers
Web	Web Components Server

A parameter is specified by preceding the value with a slash. For example, if you're working with a forest, your command would look like this.

If you run this command, you'll find that it doesn't actually do anything other than display some syntax help. That's because the command doesnt tell LCSCmd what to do to the forest. For that you need to specify another parameter: an action.
