Restrict appointments to capacity
Hi!
My question may be simple but I can't find an answer.
My problem:
I create a ressource mailbox with for example a capacity of 5.
So how can I restrict this mailbox to plan more than 5 appointments at the same time. At the moment I can make as many appointments as I want for the same time.
The PowerShell command doesn't really do what I think it would do
Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "test2" -EnforceCapacity $true
Is this even possible to restrict it?
- Capacity relates to the number of participants in a meeting, not the total number of meetings in a particular time slot. The latter is referred to as "conflicts", you can adjust the corresponding settings (-AllowConflicts/-ConflictPercentageAllowed/etc). Also note that these settings apply to meeting requests sent to the room, not to items created directly in the room calendar as delegate.
- Sorry, the problem is somewhat different than originally written.
It is about the following:
There is a room with 4 computers, and because of this, there can be no more than 4 appointments in the room at the same time.
So a resource mailbox with no more than 4 simultaneous appointments.
Sure, you could also make 4 device mailboxes, but we don't want that because of the clarity.
Is it possible to limit such a room mailbox to 4 appointments at the same time?
Is -AllowConflicts (along with the others) the right parameter for this?- You're probably better of creating four individual equipment/room mailboxes, as this allows you for greater flexibility.
