Tag: web.config

Scenario:  During the OWA Integration of Exchange 2013 and Lync 2013 , one of the steps is to edit the web.config file on each Exchange Mailbox Server by adding a IMCertificateThumbprint and IMServerName.

The script below queries a list of Exchange servers, determines the certificate thumbprint needed, appends the required values to the web.config file, and then restarts the MSExchangeOWAAppPool and the MSExchangeUM* services.

$Servers= Get-ExchangeServer | Where AdminDisplayVersion -like "*15*"

$Servers | %{
$servername = $_.name 
Write-Host $servername

#Adding the UM Info into Web.Config
$UMThumb= (Get-ExchangeCertificate -server $servername | Where { $_.Services -like '*UMC*'}).ThumbPrint | Select -First 1

Write-Host "Configuring WebConfig for "$servername " with " $UMThumb

$WebConfigFile= "\$servernameC$Program FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerV15ClientAccessOwaweb.config"

Write-Host "Editing Web.Config in $WebConfigFile"

$wc= [XML](Get-Content $WebConfigFile)
$el= $wc.CreateElement("add")
$key= $wc.CreateAttribute( 'key')
$key.psbase.value = 'IMCertificateThumbprint'
$val= $wc.CreateAttribute('value')
$val.psbase.value= $UMThumb
$el.SetAttributeNode($key)
$el.SetAttributeNode($val)
$wc.configuration.appSettings.Appendchild( $el)
$el= $wc.CreateElement("add")
$key= $wc.CreateAttribute( 'key')
$key.psbase.value = 'IMServerName'
$val= $wc.CreateAttribute('value')
$val.psbase.value= 'LyncServerPool.Domain.Com'
$el.SetAttributeNode($key)
$el.SetAttributeNode($val)
$wc.configuration.appSettings.Appendchild( $el)
$wc.Save( $WebConfigFile)


#Restart the AppPool
$appPoolName = "MSExchangeOWAAppPool"
$appPool = get-wmiobject -computername $servername -namespace "rootMicrosoftIISv2" -class "IIsApplicationPool" -Authentication PacketPrivacy -Impersonation Impersonate | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "W3SVC/APPPOOLS/$appPoolName"}
$appPool.Recycle()
