Exchange Management Console fails to Launch



Posted by: Nathan Simon
Active Directory, EMC, Exchange 2010, Exchange Management Console, Organization Management, security group, Windows Server 2008

You get the following error message.

‘The following error occurred when searching for On-Premises Exchange server:[myservername.local] Processing data from remote server failed with the following error message: The user “domain\username” isn’t assigned to any management roles. For more…. It was running “Discover-ExchangeServer – USeWIA $true -SupressError $true’

Now the reason this would happen, is if you are not a member of “Organization Management”, and this happens mainly if you were not the person that did the Exchange 2010 install. ie. Exchange 2010 was installed with a different userid.

All you have to do is add the proper userid’s to the “Organization Management” Group and you will be good to go.
