Create an Exchange ActiveSync Virtual Directory

  • Article

[This topic is in progress.]

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010

You can use the Exchange Management Shell to create a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync virtual directory in Microsoft Exchange Server 2010.

By default, when Exchange 2010 is installed, a new virtual directory is created in the default Web site in Internet Information Services (IIS). This virtual directory is named Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync. You can create additional Exchange ActiveSync virtual directories under Web sites other than the default Web site. All Exchange ActiveSync virtual directories you create will have the name Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync.

Note

You can also use this procedure to create a new Exchange ActiveSync virtual directory if you've removed the virtual directory because it's become corrupted.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange Organization Administrator role.

Procedure

To use the Exchange Management Shell to create an Exchange ActiveSync virtual directory

  1. In this example, a new Exchange ActiveSync virtual directory is created under the contoso.com Web site.

  2. Run the following command:

    New-ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName "Contoso.com"
