Hi,
I am planning to upgrade and consolidate our company's
Exchange 2000 servers. I would just like to hear if you
think our plan is feasible. I performed an inplace
upgrade of 5.5 to 2K, and the results were mixed, so I
want this one to go smoothly.
At present, we have 3 Exchange servers- 2 at 1 site and 1
at another site. One of the servers is a front end
server, and all three are running Exchange 2K. Since we
only have 30 users, we would like to run everything from
one Exchange server. We are planning to store pst's on a
network drive at the site with one Exchange server, and
then move the mailboxes to the other backend server. We
will then shut down the front end server. We have an
additional server to act as a Swing server. I will
install Exchange 03 on that server, and then move the
mailboxes. Finally, we will stop the Exchange services on
the last 2K Exchange server.
Please let me know what you think about our plan. I would
like to hear any ideas or suggestions. I am also toying
with the idea of doing an in-place upgrade of the last
Exchange 2K server, but I am a little concerned about how
well that will work.
Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
Eric Olson
