Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

on
Microsoft is rolling a new update to Copilot Notebooks that make collaboration even easier: the ability to share Copilot Notebooks with your colleagues.  Personally, I like Notebooks because they feel almost like small, personal agents I don’t have to configure. They give me a safe space to collect notes and documents and then work on them over time. With this update, that personal space can become a shared space for a selected group of  colleagues, without compromising security or permissions. I think it is also important to note that your chat and chat history within the Notebook stays private. The web rollout began in late October and will finish by December, while mobile access starts in early November and are related to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ( ID 506851 )  You can also read more about the Copilot Notebooks experience on the Microsoft website here . If you like this update and want to stay informed about similar improvements, feel free to follow me on LinkedIn!

New and improved (?) backup script for Lync 2013

on
Based on a couple of feedback's and my own experience with these backup scripts, I think it is about time to release the new and improved version.

Highlights include:

  • Bugfix to catch installations where you do not use a named SQL instance
  • Should be able to create backups from several pools when running the backup (not all services, but most important)
  • The same script will now run on both Standard and Enterprise edition.
I have not tested the script in too many multi-pool installations, and really appreciate feedback on the matter. I have tested it on both standard and enterprise version.

The script is signed, and should run on any server, unmodified.

Instead of sharing the script through Drop-box, I have posted it in the Technet Gallery, right here: Backupscript-Lync_2013_v3.ps1. It will give you an option to rate the script, or even discuss it.
