MT.1083 - Ensure Delicensing Resiliency is enabled

Overview​

Important: This test is only available if your tenant has at least 5000 non-trial Exchange Online licenses.

Delicensing Resiliency SHOULD be enabled to maintain access to mailboxes when licenses are removed.

Remediation action:​

Enable Delicensing Resiliency by running the following PowerShell command in Exchange Online:

Set-OrganizationConfig -DelayedDelicensingEnabled:$true
Optional: Configure User Notifications​

You can also configure notifications to inform administrators and end users about delicensing events:

# Enable tenant admin notifications for delicensing events
Set-OrganizationConfig -TenantAdminNotificationForDelayedDelicensingEnabled:$true

# Enable end user mail notifications for delicensing events
Set-OrganizationConfig -EndUserMailNotificationForDelayedDelicensingEnabled:$true

Note: These notification settings help ensure stakeholders are informed when licensing changes occur that could affect mailbox access.
