Hello,

I can create Security Group or Distribution List Group on Active Directory using SDI but I couldn't create mail group on Active Directroy using SDI.
For Mail group, I have to use powershell commands, I have powershell sample for mail group creating but I couldn't convert to SDI anyway.
Which connector should I use? How can convert following powershell commands to java? Or is there another way to create mail group from SDI?

Following powershell commands are working from powershell CLI;
$UserCredential = Get-Credential
$Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri http://exch.bank.local/PowerShell/ -Authentication Kerberos -Credential $UserCredential
Import-PSSession $Session –DisableNameChecking
New-DistributionGroup -Name "GrupName" -Type "Security"

Regards,

There is no native SDI connector for Powershell - you can of course write you own (just joking - that is probably only a few that knows how).
Basically what I would do is to use the Remote Command connector and run the necessary powershell commands and then check the results coming back in your assembly line.

That said - the powershell object model is very similar to the SDI entry/attribute model and you may want to convert from/to either model - but again it depends on your need and abilities....

Just to clarify - the reason you have to use powershell here is that Exchange requires you to use their management commands (here in powershell) and does not allow you to do this as native AD changes...
