The purpose of this script is to document an existing Microsoft Exchange Environment, for the purposes of planning and sizing.
NOTE: The initial release only supports Exchange 2010.
Requirements: Exchange 2010 with any Service Pack Environment and Client Workstation with Word 2013 or above.
Overview: This is a 2-part script, one part gathers the information from the Exchange Environment and the other formats the results into a Word Document.
ON THE ANY EXCHANGE SERVER IN THE ENVIRONMENT: Note: The Exchange GET script must be run from a PowerShell instance that has the Exchange modules already loaded Copy the Get-All-Exchange2010.ps1 and HardwareInventory.ps1 scripts to the server in a new folder and run it from the Exchange Management Shell. Copy all of the resulting XML files # to a folder on a machine with Microsoft Office on it.
ON A CLIENT WORKSTATION WITH WORD 2010 OR ABOVE: Copy the XML files created by the Get-All script as well as all PS1 files to the same folder. Run the Create-EX-Docs.ps1 script. (This will only load some PowerShell functions into memory. It will not produce any output.) Run the Docs-Exch-ToFile command. (This will open a new Word document and populate it with the Exchange data.)
