Viewing the protection status of a Microsoft Exchange server

Users who have been assigned one of the following roles can view the protection status of the Microsoft Exchange server in Windows PowerShell:

• Administrator;
• Anti-Virus Security Officer;
• Anti-Virus Security Operator.

To view the protection status of a Microsoft Exchange server:

1. Run Windows PowerShell (Run as Administrator) and connect the Kse.Powershell library.
2. Run command:

   Get-KSEServerStatus -ServerFqdn <server name>

   where <server name> is the name of the protected Microsoft Exchange server. We recommend that you specify the full address of the server in FQDN format or the IP address.

Windows PowerShell displays the following information details:
