Revoke-CsSetupPermission

Revokes the Skype for Business Server setup rights that have been granted on an Active Directory organizational unit (OU). This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.

Syntax

Revoke-CsSetupPermission
      -ComputerOU <String>
      [-Domain <Fqdn>]
      [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
      [-GlobalCatalog <Fqdn>]
      [-Force]
      [-Report <String>]
      [-WhatIf]
      [-Confirm]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The domain preparation that takes place when you install Skype for Business Server does not automatically add the rights that enable members of the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group to run the Enable-CsTopology cmdlet. That means that, by default, you must be a domain administrator in order to enable a topology. To give members of the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group the right to enable a topology, you must run the Grant-CsSetupPermissions cmdlet. In addition, you will need to run this cmdlet against each Active Directory container that hosts computers running Skype for Business Server.

Rights granted by using the Grant-CsSetupPermission cmdlet can later be removed by using the Revoke-CsSetupPermission cmdlet. If you run that cmdlet, the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group will no longer have Skype for Business Server setup rights for the specified Active Directory container. In that case, you will need to be an enterprise administrator or a domain administrator in order to enable a Skype for Business Server topology.

Examples

Revoke-CsSetupPermission -ComputerOU "ou=CsServers,dc=litwareinc,dc=com"

The command shown in Example 1 revokes the setup rights applied to the CsServers OU in the domain litwareinc.com.
