Shared mailboxes
Hi.
I have a scenario where we want to create shared mailboxes in Exchange based on resources in FIM.
As I understand it, shared mailboxes are created through PS scripts, so do I have to write an an extended MA or do FIM has som built-in functionality for this?
I don't twant to do any metaverse extension, it should be based on EREs
Thanks.

Couple of options here - 'shared' mailboxes have to be created via PS. There is no native support in FIM (although I wish MS would provide this).
- Write an XMA that programatically calls the PS command, info
here
- Write an activity in action workflow that calls the PS command after the Sync Service has provisioned the account in ADDS
- Write a Windows Service that monitors ADDS and calls the PS command when it discovers a new account in ADDS
Lots of info regarding Exchange mailbox provisioning
