Copilot in PowerPoint with Organizational Brand Images coming soon

on
Copilot in PowerPoint with Organizational Brand Images coming soon Microsoft is about to improve Copilot in PowerPoint by making it possible to connect it to your organization's brand images.

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:

  • 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.
