Ok, we're do not run a two servers. We doing transfer to new
server have a brand new hard disk much larger size than was 80Gb.
Right. You're asking to get your existing environment / server
'restored' or transferred to new hardware. And because you cannot
have two SBS servers in the same domain, this is far more
complicated than it would be with the enterprise products.
So Can you help me some instruction.... You talk about
SBSMigration....What is it for ?
Did you go to the website?
Okay, These web talked about SBS. But...too late
I bought a new Windows Server 2003 Standard version R2 (NOT SBS).
SBS2003 cannot support XEON has maximum a 4 CPU.
we still run a old server is SBS2003 server at office.
I'm very sorry, I didn't catch that in the original message. The SBS
newsgroup would still be the best place to post if you're trying to migrate
out of SBS to the regular products.
What am I do ? I am still frustrate that cost expensive....'
What was the reason you wanted to get off of SBS, if I might ask? It
supports up to 75 users and can handle multiple DCs/member servers. Just
because you have new hardware doesn't mean you can't still use SBS....if you
have a retail, and not an OEM, copy. Also, note that your new hardware
doesn't incorporate any disk redundancy, which is not recommended - even
hardware SATA RAID would be better than a single drive, or multiple disks
using software RAID.
You might be able to install your new server as another DC in the SBS
domain, install DNS, install Exchange into the same organization, move
mailboxes, replicate public folders....copy data/shares, then disconnect the
SBS box and seize the FSMO roles on the new server. Don't turn the SBS back
on again if it's still connected on the same network, tho.
Other options, which are messier - create an entirely new AD domain. ADMT
might help you - and for Exchange data, since this is a small office, you
could use Exmerge for the mailboxes as long as they aren't larger than, say,
1.8GB. You can manually export your public folders to PST. Or, see Recovery
Manager for Exchange at www.quest.com - it's a per-mailbox charge and there
should be no minimum purchase requirement.
Help me - I can't find the Exchange or (Management Console 2.0) after
installed the Windows 2003 CD on new server.
Did you already purchase, and install, Exchange 2003 on this new server? You
made no mention of that that I can see.
I'm not sure what you mean by management console; can you not go to start |
run and type mmc <enter> ? What is it you're looking for?
Thanks
Mike
