If you look further down the Target, we’re actually importing this PS1 script that gets installed with the tools. You can see that we’re really calling as the target for this shortcut, we’re calling PowerShell.exe. When you run this shortcut, let’s take a look at that, we’ll go into Programs and go into the Properties of the Exchange Management Shell. So here, if I try to run get mailbox, I’m going to get an error there because we haven’t really told this instance of PowerShell that we want the Exchange tools loaded.
This is just powershell.exe, and when you run this you don’t actually get the Exchange tools even though you might have them installed locally. Now if we look at the typical PowerShell, blue PowerShell console, that you’re probably used to that’s located under Accessories > Windows PowerShell. What’s happening is that command is really executing on the Exchange Server, on. Once that comes up, I can do things like run “ get mailbox,” that will show me all the mailboxes that are out there. You can see that it hung there, but what it’s doing right now is it’s connecting to, so that’s a server that’s remote to where I’m sitting. Sometimes, this first run will take a little bit of time. What will happen here is in my environment when I fire up this instance of Exchange Management Shell, we’re actually going to go out in an Active Directory and trying to locate an Exchange Server in the current Active Directory site that I’m sitting in. So this is basically just a customized version of your typical powershell.exe. You can see that I have the Exchange Management Shell shortcut. But I can also go into All Programs under Exchange 2010.
So for example, this Windows 7 machine, you can see that I’ve got the Exchange Management Console.

But what a lot of us do when we’re managing Exchange Server is actually install those tools locally on our desktops. When you install an Exchange Server, you get the Exchange tools installed along with it which gives you the Exchange Management Shell (EMS). Then we’ll also look at some common scenarios like some basic report generation and scheduling some scripts so they’ll run automatically for you in the background. We’ll use a scripting editor and make sure that we can get the Exchange environment loaded as well. We’ll go beyond just working interactively in the Shell and actually composing real world robust scripts. Let’s take a look at a couple of ways that you can use the Exchange Management Shell in a scripting environment.
