XFOR: Regulating Free/Busy Updates for Selective Custom Recipients

ID: Q200365


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5


SUMMARY

Because of network restrictions or bandwidth issues, it may not be feasible for the Microsoft Exchange Calendar Connector to perform a complete calendar synchronization for all custom recipients in the site. This article describes a technique to selectively update free/busy data for these custom recipients without generating a large amount of traffic on your network.


MORE INFORMATION

You can create a Distribution List within the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator program to represent a subset of your custom recipients. By creating a limited subset of custom recipients, you can stagger the free/busy updates and avoid a potential backlog in the network. You would simply send a free/busy request for that particular DL, and the Calendar Connector will then update the free/busy information for those users in that DL.

Additional query words: network bandwidth, calendar connector, workaround
