Good, detailed book

ByJustin M. Jameson August 11, 2008

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a good, detailed look at Office Communications Server 2007. It has a lot of nitty gritty details, including information on how to debug the system with a network monitor and low-level protocol information. Where the book really misses the mark, is for administrators who do *not* have a giant, multi-site, zillion server network. Ironically, most sys admin books feel like the author only had access to 1 server to write the book, and admins in larger networks are left with no details on scaling out. This book goes in the opposite direction; huge portions of it are devoted to large networks, and all of the examples are for large networks. As the admin of a much smaller network, I found much of this to be useless, occassionally confusing, and trying to put me on an implementation path much more expensive than it needs to be for my organization.

It dives deeper than you might be expecting, but you'll be happy you have the information when you need it.

All the tools, by scenario, and all the best inside information

ByDuncan Bloomeon June 4, 2008

Format: Paperback

OCS is a powerful product, enabling many different scenarios, and this resource kit is a must for administering it.

Just having the tools and OCS PowerShell scripts in one place is handy, but what makes the *book* a great buy is the content around the tools and scripts. The book is neatly organized by different scenarios, and show each of the reskit tools *as appropriate for each scenario*. That's a big help, because there are many useful tools and scripts here, but identifying which one(s) to use would take a lot of effort without this focus.

The material itself is structured so that it's easy to find high level information, but has deeper information embedded. It's easy to get right to the practical information while skipping over the deeper technical content if you don't need it, but it's easy to find and dig into that deeper material if you *do* need it.

Because of the organization and solid content, you don't have to read the whole book to get a lot of value. When I needed specific information about the changes from LCS (the previous generation of OCS), or when I needed to figure out the best tools tools to use for the *new* scenarios, I got practical guidance, quickly, on the appropriate techniques and tools.

Best of all, the book is filled with detailed and interesting side bars from experts, both within the Microsoft product team and from outside experts with extensive real world deployment and configuration experience. They were so much fun, I found myself skimming the rest of the book, just to read these sidebars.

The OCS 2007 Resource Kit is a must have for any OCS administrator. It has all the details about Office Communicator you need to fully support and understand this complicated product. It has all the WMI settings that any admin would need to make changes to there environment. Also detailed diagnostic information about IM, Conferencing, Telephony is fully exposed in their respective chapters. I highly reoommend it.

The best book on Office Communications Server 2007 I've ever seen

ByB. Stuckeron February 21, 2008

Format: Paperback

This is a great book for anyone who has, is, or is thinking about working with Office Communications Server 2007. There's so much detail packed into this book, and it really runs you through the product from the bottom up. Since there was so much collaboration between people who have or continue to work on the product, no detail was spared.
