Preparing Enterprise Pools for Office Communications Server (Command Line)

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

Before installing servers for Office Communications Server Enterprise Edition, you need to set up an Enterprise pool. By using LCSCmd with the /forest context, you can create Enterprise pools, as well as check, remove, and update those pools.

Here is a list of parameters that can (or must) be used with a pool action.
