Example

In this example, Equipment and Room resources are added to the custom Resource Config list in Active Directory.

Note

All entries must start with either Room/ or Equipment/. Setting a new entry using the Set-ResourceConfig cmdlet will overwrite all existing entries, and not add a new entry to the list. Use the Get-ResourceConfig cmdlet to query the existing entries, and then append to the list.
