Remove-CalendarEvents for Exchange 2016
- Aug 16, 2019
No, we do not plan to release that cmdlet on older Exchange servers -- it's only available in Exchange 2019 and Office 365.

How does it work when you have an Exchange Hybrid?
Scenario:
User where you want to remove the calendarevents from is in ExO, but roommailboxes are still on-premises?
Any difference with Hybrid Exchange 2016 vs Hybrid Exchange 2019?
I suppose the functionality in the back-end is in fact sending cancellation emails, so a hybrid scenario should just work?
A nice to have would be if you could customize the cancellation email so people are also informed why the meeting is cancelled.
Kind regards

Hi, Steven
If users have a hybrid environment with exchange 2016. you can run the cmdlet by connecting to excahnge online via powershell. It will work just fine: Connect-ExchangeOnline - Julia ForanMar 30, 2020

The cmdlet can only be run against Exchange 2019 or Office 365 mailboxes that are still mail-enabled/active. When the cmdlet is run, the mailbox will send out cancellation messages to all attendees & rooms invited to the meeting. So rooms in Exchange 2016 would receive the message and have their calendar cleared.
