Get-SystemMessage [-Identity <SystemMessageIdParameter>] [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
Get-SystemMessage [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-Original <SwitchParameter>]
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
DomainController |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn |
The DomainController parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that retrieves data from Active Directory. The DomainController parameter isn't supported on the Edge Transport server role. The Edge Transport server role reads only from the Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) instance. |
|
Identity |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.SystemMessageIdParameter |
The Identity parameter specifies the identity of the DSN or quota message. You can also retrieve a customized DSN message by using the following format: language\internal | external\system code. For more information about the syntax of the DSN message identity, see DSN Message Identity. You can also retrieve a customized quota message by using the following format: language\QuotaMessageType. Language is expressed as the two-character locale code. QuotaMessageType accepts the following values:
You can omit the Identity parameter label. |
|
Original |
Optional |
System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter |
The Original parameter specifies whether to retrieve the list of default DSN or quota messages that were included with Exchange 2010 when you installed Exchange 2010. |
The Get-SystemMessage cmdlet displays default and customized DSN and quota messages. You can retrieve a customized DSN or quota message by specifying the identity of the message by using the Identity parameter. You can retrieve a list of built-in DSN or quota messages by using the Original parameter.
DSN messages are issued to the sender of e-mail messages that haven't reached their intended recipients. Quota messages are issued to users whose mailboxes or public folders have reached the specific warning, prohibit send, or prohibit receive quotas. Customized DSN and quota messages replace the built-in DSN or quota messages included with Exchange.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "DSNs" entry in the Transport Permissions topic.
