  • [Script of Aug. 29] Check database backups appended to existing backup devices problems (VBS)

    Script Download: CheckBackupToSingleFile.zip
    http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Check-database-backups-4d65f7c2

    The backup history for SQL Server database indicates that backups are getting appended to existing backup devices. This increases the risk of losing all the backups when the backup device gets damaged. Also the performance of backups and restoring operations might be degraded when several backups are appended to one another on the same backup device that resides on a remote server and accessed over the network. Review the backup history information stored in msdb database and configure your backup scripts or solution to store backups in individual backup devices.

    This script can be used to detect the database backups appended to existing backup devices problems.

  • [Script of Aug. 5] Import Master Category List for Multiple Users in Office 365 Exchange Online

    Script Download: ImportOSCEXOMasterCategoryList.zip
    http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Import-Category-List-for-2ef1bc05/

    This script demonstrates how to import master category list for multiple users in Office 365 Exchange Online. This script requires you to add proper permission to the default Calendar folder before exporting or importing master category list by default. However, this script also allows you to use Impersonation. Impersonation enables an account on an Exchange server to perform actions by using the permissions that are associated with another account.

    Currently, Outlook Web App (OWA) does not allow you to export or import master category list (color categories). But some of you rely on this feature for handling your email messages efficiently. For example, you want to import a master category template list for new hires. So you want a script to mitigate this issue.
