I recently rebuilt my PC and was annoyed by Skype for Business popping all of the newbie nag messages that I’d previously suppressed. “There has to be a way to suppress these en-masse” I say to myself. Whilst trawling through the Registry to find them it also occurred to me that when I’m delivering end-user …
Following on from my recent script set-uxfxscountry-ps1, here’s another quick script that uses Vik Jaswal’s great PowerShell module for the Sonus SBC1000 & 2000 gateways. This one queries and displays on-screen the current logging level set in the gateway and lets you change the level of ALL of the components to a new value. I …
My current work project is to add an Australia-wide Lync deployment into a much larger global installation. As part of this I’ve found it’s sometimes a challenge to monitor just those bits that I’m responsible for. The Command “get-CsManagementStoreReplicationStatus” – or “get-CsMana<tab><tab>” as I prefer to call it – outputs too much “noise”, scrolling many …
Been here before? Know the deal? Jump to the revision history to see what’s in the latest update. … or go straight to the Downloads. The name’s a bit of a mouthful, but “Convert-RibbonSbcConfigToWord.ps1” takes the backup file from your Ribbon/Sonus SBC/UX 1000 or 2000 gateway and creates a new Word document, with all …
Here’s a script from the quick & dirty category. Worthy of publishing, but not something I’m going to get around to polishing up to be all-singing and all-dancing. “Set-UxFxsCountry.ps1” uses Vik Jaswal’s fantastic PowerShell module for the Sonus UX/SBC family of gateways to automate what I reckon has to be the most tedious task of …
On a recent window-shopping expedition through the event logs on a customer’s Front-End I stumbled across instances of warnings 31137 & 31138. These are generated when Lync realises that users belonging to RGS Agent Groups are no longer EV-enabled, or no longer exist. During the Active Directory update non-UC enabled agents were found. The following …
Here’s an ad-hoc post with a collection of snippets of PowerShell I often seem to find myself needing to refer to. There are some more good ones here from Paul Bloem, over the pond. How do I find (and/or count) the users homed to a given FE/pool? Get-CsUser | Where-Object {$_.RegistrarPool -match “<POOL FQDN>”} | …
Creating and administering Analog Devices and Common Area Phones in Lync is sometimes a little tedious. I have a terrible record for forgetting to assign a PIN to Common Area Phones… Inspired by a customer (and to the horror of a purist peer) I’ve created a PowerShell script that provides a GUI for the administration …

Sometimes PowerShell truncates output, and if you don’t realise what’s going on, you’ll never get it to show. Where you’re expecting potentially lots more text, PowerShell replaces it with a single lousy ellipsis, cruelly taunting you. Column Width If it’s just a column width problem, the fix is simple enough: just pipe to out-string and add …
Ståle Hansen has published a great PowerShell script that digs through the Lync CsUnassignedNumber list and mashes it against all of the possible uses of a number (including CsAnalogDevices, CommonAreaPhones, RGS, UMContacts and more) to report what numbers in a given number range are currently spare. It fills a yawning (and frustrating gap) in the …
