Powershell: Enable multiple Lync 2013 users

When you have a large Lync 2013 environment with several OU’s, you want to “Lync enable” users automatically, and maybe you require a specific user policy for those users. (As you can see i used a VDI policy in my example) With this powershell script you can add as many OU’s as you like as long as you separate them with a comma. Users to enable within a specific OU are selected by: AD account is not disabled, AD account has an e-mail address, AD account is not Lync enabled yet. When you fill out the configuration lines at the begin, your ready to go. You have to run the script on a machine with the Lync cmdlets (Administrative Tools). I’ve tested the script for Lync 2013 implementations.

$LOGLOC = "c:\lync"
$LYNCPOOLFQDN = "lyncpool.peppercrew.nl"
# When you have more then one OU, you can separate them with a comma.
$ACTIVATEOU = "OU=User,OU=Accounts,DC=peppercrew,DC=nl","OU=Lync,OU=Accounts,DC=peppercrew,DC=nl"
# Client policy empty for default or for VDI (!!create VDI policy first!!)
$CLIENTPOLICY = "VDI"
