Skype for Business Server must have the February 2017 update for Skype for Business Server or later installed.
When you try to run a powershell script on Windows, you may receive the following error stating that the execution policy on your computer does not allow you to run the script.
To fix this error, you must change the PowerShell execution policy for this computer. These instructions will explain how to allow “Unrestricted” access to running scripts on your computer.
To set the execution policy to unrestricted, enter the following command (PowerShell must be run as an Administrator):
Needed a backup script which i can run from the powershell or with use of the Windows schedular.
I’ve created some checks on folders and succesrate. The scripts also can email you when backup is succesful/failed.
If you have any suggestions please let me know!

In order to send mail from your own mailserver (in this case Microsoft Exchange 2016) you’ll need to setup a send connector.
In this tutorial i’ll show you how to configure this part.
Configure the Send Connector
Go to your Exchange admin center.
Go to Send Connectors and add a new connector.
Name the connector and select Internet and click next.
Open your IIS Manager, right click “Server Farms” and “Create Server Farm”.
Specify a Server Farm name, i used Skypeweb
Click “Next”.
Server address must be your Front-end pool, click show advanced setting and set the following ports
httpPort 8080
httpsPort 4443
And click “Add” and “Finish”
These ports are configured on your Front-end server for external traffic.
Click Yes at the next screen. (this will save you some time later..)
Let’s take a small adventure into the world of free SharePoint. Yes, Completely free!
SharePoint Foundation 2013 is technically free (Exept your windows license ofcourse) and can do a whole lot for you without needing to spend significant amounts of money on Server editions of SharePoint.
Downloading SharePoint Foundation
Finding SharePoint Foundation was not as easy as one would expect. Going to www.sharepoint.com, and clicking Try or Buy didn’t render a link. I clicked Try Now under SharePoint Server 2013. Then off to the right under Related Downloads is a link for SharePoint Foundation 2013. Wait, that doesn’t have SP1 which is required for Windows Server 2012 (but SP1 has been retracted, hasn’t it?), so I searched some more and found it. Lucky for you, you can download it from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42039. If you’re running Windows Server 2008, you can download it without SP1: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35488. Looks like Microsoft doesn’t necessarily want to show off this free version is readily available.
Before installing SQL Server 2016 you need to prepare your system.This guide will help you to apply all patches needed for installation.
Start with installing .NET framework 3.5 via Server Manager (link), Go to Windows Update and make sure the following settings are correct(see image below)
No check for new updates and make sure all updates are installed.
Before you can install the KB2919355 patch you will need to download and install KB2919442: Update voor Windows Server 2012 R2 first.
