Lync – Get-MCsPool

When you look for a simple way to get all Lync Server topology, you probably will do a Get-CsPool command. But here, you don’t see the sites and the output is not coming in a easily readable way.

The script below will let you Show all information at once.

Get-MCsPool will show you your infrastructure in an easy way :

function Get-MCsPool{

			Write-Host " )" -foregroundcolor Green
		}
