Detailed Description
The New-UMAutoAttendant cmdlet lets you create one or more UM auto attendants. Unified Messaging auto attendants have a forest-wide scope in the configuration container in the Active Directory directory service. When you create a new UM auto attendant, it is linked to a single UM dial plan that contains a list of extension numbers. Linking the UM auto attendant to the UM dial plan enables the associated Unified Messaging servers to answer incoming calls by using the UM auto attendant.
To run the New-UMAutoAttendant cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange Organization Administrator role
