If the script is run from a computer that doesn't have Active Directory PowerShell module installed on it, `Get-ADComputer` will fail with the exception `CommandNotFoundException`. The output will then display that you should run `Install-WindowsFeature RSat-AD-PowerShell` on the computer to get the module installed. This is how you get this feature to then start reporting correctly.

If you see an output of:

Exchange Server Membership: Failed
Unable to determine Local System Membership as the results were blank.

This can have multiple meanings.

1. Ambiguous: The command Get-LocalGroupMember failed to run successfully.
2. Literal: That there is a group membership issue.

Confirm which one of the two is the problem by reviewing local group membership. The `Administrators` group should have members which include: `Domain Admins`, `Exchange Trusted Subsystem`, and `Organization Management`.

If you see an output of:

Exchange Server Membership: Failed
Unable to determine AD Group Membership as the results were blank.

This can have multiple meanings.

1. Ambiguous: The command Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership failed to run successfully.
2. Literal: That there is a group membership issue.

Confirm which one of the two is the problem by reviewing what groups the Server is a member of. The server should be a member of `Exchange Trusted Subsystem`, and `Exchange Servers`.
