Hi,
Is there a way to combine equipment resources to act the same way as the room resources do?
For instance, assume I create a distribution group called "Computers" for 5 computers that people remote into. I create 5 equipment resources and assign them as members of the distribution group. Ideally, going to the Calendar, using the Room List, I could switch to "Computers" list and book the computer that is available at a specified time.
It would be extremely helpful and powerful feature. Currently, we add all 5 computer resources to the calendars as resources, then check for computer whichever is available at a desirable time, then uncheck all other computer resources that did not work for the time specified, ONLY THEN book the resource. This is tedious and by far not very intuitive or user friendly.
I tried making a Room Distribution List and adding equipment resources to it, but that gave me an error message - only room resources can be members. I checked the New-DistributionGroup command and -RoomList is the only option that is relevant in my case. Wish there was something like -EquipmentList or another customelist.
I mean, what if a company has 100 resources to manage, how would I book the available one that fits my time schedule easily. We migrated from 2003 Exchange to 2010 and I find RoomList to be a brilliant feature! I am sure there must be something for equipment as well!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
