Exchange 2016 - Book a room for more than 6 months

Question

_{Friday, September 14, 2018 2:27 PM}

It is possible to change the restriction for bookin a room only for 6 months? I'm trying to find out how to do that.

I found this link (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123609(EXCHG.65).aspx) but I guess is not working any more.

If you have something that guide me on this issue, I will appreciate it.

Thanks

Josh

The BookingWindowInDays parameter specifies the maximum number of days in advance that the resource can be reserved. Valid input is an integer from 0 through 1080. The default value is 180 days. The value 0 means today.

The EnforceSchedulingHorizon parameter controls the behavior of recurring meetings that extend beyond the date specified by the BookingWindowInDays parameter.

Valid values for this parameter are:

• $true: A recurring meeting request is automatically declined if the meetings start on or before the date specified by the BookingWindowInDays parameter, and the meetings extend beyond the specified date.

• $false: A recurring meeting request is automatically accepted if the meetings start on or before the date specified by the BookingWindowInDays parameter, and the meetings extend beyond the specified date. However, the number of meetings is automatically reduced so meetings won't occur after the specified date.

The MaximumDurationInMinutes parameter specifies the maximum duration in minutes for meeting requests. Valid input for this parameter is an integer from 0 through INT32 (2147483647). The default value is 1440 (24 hours).

When the value is set to 0, the maximum duration of a meeting is unlimited. For recurring meetings, the value of this parameter applies to the length of an individual meeting instance.

The ScheduleOnlyDuringWorkHours parameter specifies whether to allow meetings to be scheduled outside of the working hours that are defined for the resource mailbox.

Valid input for this parameter is $true or $false. The default value is $false.

If set to $true, meeting requests for times outside the working hours of the resource mailbox will be rejected.

You configure the working hours of the resource mailbox by using the WorkDays, WorkingHoursStartTime, WorkingHoursEndTime and WorkingHoursTimeZone parameters on the Set-MailboxCalendarConfiguration cmdlet.

Yeah, to allow booking more than 6 months out, you can change the "BookingWindowInDays" value to something higher than the default 180 (the max is 1080)

Set-CalendarProcessing "room name" -BookingWindowInDays 1080
