Delegate365 changelog version 4.5.3-AllRequestOutOfPolicy

Delegate365 changelog version 4.5.3-AllRequestOutOfPolicy

Delegate365 will be updated to version 4.5.3 this Friday. In this version resource mailboxes receive a new feature for controlling the AllRequestOutOfPolicy property (a feature the Office 365 portal does not provide). The AllRequestOutOfPolicy setting: When using resources like a room, there can be an issue with reservation: “Office 365 users can reserve a meeting room even though it’s already reserved for another meeting”. Microsoft describes this issue in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3066068. This resource mailbox property cannot be set in the Office 365 portal, just with PowerShell – and with Delegate365 for portal admins and scope admins as well. ...

Microsoft changes the OneDrive storage plans

Today Microsoft announced some changes in OneDrive (the consumer cloud storage) on the OneDrive Blog. To make it quick, here are the changes taken from the source blogpost “OneDrive storage plans change in pursuit of productivity and collaboration”. We’re no longer planning to offer unlimited storage to Office 365 Home, Personal, or University subscribers. Starting now, those subscriptions will include 1 TB of OneDrive storage. 100 GB and 200 GB paid plans are going away as an option for new users and will be replaced with a 50 GB plan for $1.99 per month in early 2016. ...

Convert Hyper-V VHDX to VHD for use in Azure

Convert Hyper-V VHDX to VHD for use in Azure

Well, I admit, I stumbled across that: I created a virtual machine in my local network and wanted to use it in Microsoft Azure. Well, of course – although I’ve read it a thousand times – the source machine was a VHDX file… So the VHDX file needs to be converted to VHD format. Happily, I found the solution quickly : Converting Hyper-V .vhdx to .vhd file formats for use in Windows Azure ...

Delegate365 changelog version 4.5.2-list updates

Delegate365 changelog version 4.5.2-list updates

With Delegate365 version 4.5.2 there come some improvements. See the details here. Sorting in all Lists: We changed the sorting in all lists of D365. Before that, sorting only sorted all visible items on the current page in the list. If a user now clicks on a sortable column header, D365 now sorts all items in the list - regardless on which page the entry is. The following screenshot shows the behavior: In this user list there are two pages. If the Admin clicks on the column “Display Name”, all items are sorted. If the sort order is descending like here, we see the last item “Zack Kelly”, even if this user actually was on page two. So, now D365 sorts all items (server side) in any list and no longer just the items on the current page (client side). This behavior now delivers the results a user would expect of the sorting. All lists have been updated in D365 and now use this new sorting method. Besides: Also Search is searching all entries in lists! ...
