Unified GAL with AADConnect
Hi, My customer wants to merge bikes.com" into cars.com's existing hybrid-configured and federated tenant by adding bikes.com email domain to the existing tenant and create a unified GAL as cars.c...
- They will not, as they'll be getting the on-premises GAL.
The only way to end up with "unified GAL" in this scenario is to move all users to a single O365 tenant. Alternatively, you can use third-party "galsync" tools, as AAD Connect only synchronizes from on-prem to Azure AD.
As for free/busy sharing, org relationships are the way to go: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/sharing/sharing

VasilMichev, thanks for your reply.
Could you please clarify "move users to a single tenant"?
The suggested solution is a single O365 tenant with two domains (cars.com and bikes.com) as bikes.com will keep its domain. Cars.com is already configured as an Exchange hybrid and now they want to merge bikes.com into the already existing tenant.
To get a unified GAL, will an AADConnect write-back sync suffice or does bikes.com also need to be an Exchange hybrid?
Thanks, Douglas
