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 appo...
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.
- Yes you're right, that's the best solution.
