# Information You Need to Create an Exchange Mailbox Server for a User Mailbox in an Exchange Online (Through On-Premises Active Directory) Environment

When you create an Exchange Mailbox server for a User Mailbox in an Microsoft 365 with Exchange using a on-premises Active Directory environment, you need the following information.

The job results directory should be a location that is always accessible to the access nodes.

The job results directory can be located on the coordinator (Access node). By default, the first available access node listed under the access nodes tab acts as a coordinator that is responsible for distributing operations across all access nodes.

Make sure that the local system account user has write permissions to the job results directory.

If you move a shared job results directory, you must manually copy the entire folder structure into the new directory.

Consider the following when you configure recall services:

- Specify a domain namespace.

- The recall service URL, which is the URL to the client where the Command Center is installed, should be in either of the following formats: http://server.domain.com or https://server.domain.com.
