M365 large scale #79

Closed burnziii closed 2 years ago

burnziii commented 2 years ago

When using script to protect mailboxes at this wiki page it is mentioned that each protection group should contain max 5000 objects (https://github.com/bseltz-cohesity/scripts/wiki/Protecting-O365-Objects).

Is the flag "-allMailboxes" choosing only 5000 or do I have to put a list with 5000 and at the next run there will be the next 5000 objects added automatically while choosing "-allMailboxes"?

Correct, the -allMailboxes switch will add mailboxes to a protection group until the number of mailboxes in that job is equal to -maxMailboxesPerJob which is by default 5000. If you have more mailboxes than that you can run the script again with a different protection group name, and add the next group of up to 5000 mailboxes, and so on.

Great, thank you very much for your quick response. Would be great if these "limits" for m365 scaling would be mentioned in the offical documentation.
