Hello,
I'm am trying to find out the most sensible upgrade path from my current
SBS2000 network.
I currently have a Dell Poweredge server with 2Gb RAM, approx 210Gb of RAID
5 storage and 50 CALs.
Currently I am using approx 140Gb of disk space, I have 55 users that would
like(!) to login, we use exchange (approx 8Gb store size), OWA, SQL server,
IIS, ISA, Trend CSM, Vertias BackupExec, MailEssentials (for SPAM) and
obviously file & print services. I need in the short term to (a) get the 5
extra users on the system (b) add another 5 users. In the medium term I
expect to have to add another 10-15 users.
I see two possibilities:-
1. Move to SBS2003
2. Move to seperate servers.
Firstly, if I want to move to SBS 2003, what upgrade/licences do I need to
buy? I have seen mentioned Transistion, upgrade and full copies of the
(premium) product plus transistional, upgrade and additional extra CAL's
Alternatively, if I move to seperate servers how many (or more appropriately
how few!) do I need and what are the most sensible licencing options for
Exchange, SQL server and IIS?
Thanks
Steve Everington
