Hi everyone,

can anybody tell me where I could possibly find the PowerShell snap-ins for Microsoft Exchange 2010. Of course I could just install Exchange 2010 management tools on my machine but I'd rather not for the sake of a smaller footprint etc. ;-)

Regards, Kevin

A: 

Exchange 2010 EMS is using PowerShell remoting (no more snap-in loading). You don't have to install the Exchange 2010 management tools on your machine, with PowerShell 2.0 (with remoting enabled) you can load the commands into your local session (aka implicit remoting):

PS > $session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri http://Exchange1/Powershell
PS > Import-PSSession $session

Now you can call any Exchange cmdlet from your local session.

Thank you, Shay.Last night I found out about implicit remoting. Works well :-)
