Great tip

In a couple of weeks I have to collect my daughter from Heathrow Terminal 5 at about 10.30pm one evening. Any tips? Never been to the airport before and don't want to be stung for huge parking charges if necessary! She's been travelling light and will just have a back-pack.

Decent instructions here: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/upgrade_vbr.html?ver=95u4#upgrade

I've just gone to update my VEEAM Server and see that you cannot install update 4a as a patch - you have to download the whole ISO - anyone got any instructions for installing one of these? All previous VEEAM updates I've done where just click and run!

Thanks. Just downloaded and created a test OU and deployed out a treat. Question though, does the base install require any tweaking to make it student proof? I noticed a "Privacy and Network Access Policy" pop-up on first use.

Worked like a charm - thanks!

Great. Groups have updated to Azure and I've now sorted the staff so they are assigned their O365 licences via the group they belong to in AD, did take a few minutes to go through and delete all their "Directly Assigned" licences. When I come to do the same for my students - is there a quicker way to do this? In the Azure Active Directory Admin Center I cannot see a way to quickly select multiple users :/ so I can remove their licence...

Cheers. I'll give this a try - many thanks.

It appears when the hybrid setup was implemented that some accounts were missed! Entering the command : Enable-RemoteMailbox -Identity "username" -RemoteRoutingAddress "user-email-address" Seems to fix the issue - is there a way to run this command on multiple users?

I have a hybrid Exchange setup and I've got some users who I can see in Office 365 who do not appear to exist when I log in via the ECP. Any ideas?

Can I just edit the group properties in AD and change it to a Security Group?

My groups are Global Distribution Groups with the correct AD attributes set : Name, DisplayName, ProxyAddress, Mail.

I've managed to successfully sync my two groups from AD to O365. They are named : O365-Faculty & O365-Students However I still can't locate them when I try to assign a licence - ideas anyone?

It looks like from research that I should be able to deploy licences using AD groups. https://practical365.com/blog/simplifying-office-365-license-control-azure-ad-group-based-license-management/ But when I log in to Azure I don't see any of my AD groups listed, does anyone know if this is a good solution and if so how do I get my AD Azure connect to sync my groups as well as my users?

Is it possible to assign just the Office 365 Pro Plus part of the Office 365 Pro Plus licence to all my students using powershell? We migrated our on-prem email solution at Easter to O365 and are now slowly slowly allowing the staff and students to use more of the O365 apps etc. I know I can select 100 students at a time and manually apply but if it's easy enough to do this via Powershell I'll give it a go. If it helps we've got a hybrid setup.

I've just had a quote for "Creative Cloud for enterprise All Apps" A/ VIPE Creative Cloud for enterprise All Apps ALL Multiple Platforms EU English Enterprise Licensing Subscription New Monthly K-12 SCHOOL SITE LICENSE (500+) - Named (Minimum order 500) @£4.16 x 500 = £2,080 & B/ VIPE Creative Cloud for enterprise All Apps ALL Multiple Platforms EU English Enterprise Licensing Subscription New Monthly Shared Device Education License Lab and Classroom - Device @£165.71 x 100 = £16,571 This is for a new build school which will only have 120 students in year 7 initially - but over the course of 5 years will rise to 900 students as each new year of 180 fills the school. My forecast for the number of computers on site year on year is around: Year 1 : 300 Year 2 : 340 Year 3 : 380 Year 4 : 430 Year 5 : 480 Just trying to get my head around the pricing! In year 1 are my options either A/ @ £2,080 or B/ @ £49,713 And in year 5 A/ @ £3,744 or B/ @ £79,540.80 I think I must be reading the quote wrong

I don't think they likes change!

Hi, I can't see how to mass add 800 email addresses to the Groups in O365 - if you know a way I'd love to see it

Thanks for the advice. Maybe we'll do it in batches of 150 or so over the course of a day. Cheers

Simple and genius!

I have a CSV of around 800 people who I need to email so they don't all see each other's email addresses! I've created a new user on our office 365 tenancy and imported the list of 800 as contacts - I can't now see how to send an email and have them all added to the BCC box. Is there a simpler way to achieve what I'm looking to do?

Secondary School's - how much do you pay for your Broadband per year? Just that really.

I've got a DM who is very anti against any move from SIMS to Bromcom, which will be one of the MIS providers we'll be looking at when our new MAT comes online and the new school we're going to run goes live in 2021! Interested in any comments from school's who have transitioned from SIMS to Bromcom.

I'm wondering as I'm looking for some recommendations for the new school I'm involved in if this thread could be resurrected with the latest companies that are being used in secondary schools?
