Set-QADGroup, setting properties

Question

I can't get the following properties to work :/

mail 
mailNickname 
name 
cn 
dn 

The reason behind this is because we are going to be renaming every object in our AD (thousands of groups), and i need all properties to be changed.

been reading Quest everywhere however they only take up displayName as an example and nothing more advanced.

I've gotten the following to work though:

get-QADGroup -SearchRoot 'ex.local/' -LdapFilter '(samaccountname=test_group*)' -GroupType 'Distribution' -IncludedProperties "displayName", "mailNickname", "name", "mail" | foreach-object {
    Set-QADGroup $_ –displayName ("new_displayname")
}

Answer 1

One thing though, you cannot rename the group by setting the Name property, you'll get an error. To rename the object use the Rename-QADObject cmdlet

Answer 2

You can try:

Set-QADGroup $_ -ObjectAttributes @{mail = "New_Mail"; mailNickname = "New_mailNickname"; name = "New_Name" }

DN and CN will be update when you move the group from an OU to another one.
