Add remote group to RoomMailbox in Exchange 2010

I am struggling with a problem that's driving me crazy.

I have an Exchange Resource Forest with a number of room mailboxes.
For some of the rooms only specific people are allowed to book. That I can fix with both EMC og EMS, no problem. But the tricky part is that those people (up to 300 hundred in some cases) are placed in groups in one of the account domains.

This could have been it, but unfortunately not:
Set-CalendarProcessing `
     -AllBookInPolicy $false `
     -BookInPolicy 'AccountForest.local/SecurityGroups/A-Group-With-Lots-of-users' `
     -Identity 'ExchResourceDomain.company.dk/Resources/Rooms/MeetingRoom1'

Open in new window


Is it possible to add a group from a remote (trusted) domain to the calendar?

Hi,

Please try the following. I have added domain controller which should be pointing to a DC in account domain. Also the group should be mail enabled.

Set-CalendarProcessing `
     -AllBookInPolicy $false `
     -BookInPolicy 'AccountForest.local/SecurityGroups/A-Group-With-Lots-of-users' `
     -Identity 'ExchResourceDomain.company.dk/Resources/Rooms/MeetingRoom1'
     -DomainController <DomainController in AccountForest>

Open in new window

I have already tried that one. When applying the DC in the AccountForest, PowerShell can't find MeetingRoom1 (in the Resource Forest).
Could you please let me know the error after executing the comamnd?
The operation couldn't be performed because object 'resourcedomain.com/Rooms/test' couldn't be found on 'dc01.accountdomain.local'.
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [Add-DistributionGroupMember], ManagementObjectNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 695149C3,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.AddDistributionGroupMember
Please try the command in following format.

Set-CalendarProcessing `
     -AllBookInPolicy $false `
     -BookInPolicy 'AccountForest.local\A-Group-With-Lots-of-users' `
     -Identity 'ExchResourceDomain.company.dk\MeetingRoom1'
     -DomainController <DomainController in AccountForest>

Open in new window

It give the exact same error...
Please confirm that the group in AccountForest is a mail enabled security group. Also, its group scope should be Global or Universal.
The group is Global Security, but it aint mail enabled. There are no mailservers in the account forest.
