The load on the DC will probably change as the months go by. It will
be hosting the primary application, and possibly Exchange w/OWA in the
future. The role of the SBS DC at this point is minimal, as this
company is just getting started. I expect it to grow load-wise
substantially in the coming years. So I would like to implement now
for heavy load on the DC in the future. The role of the TS will be
heavier in copming months/years as well. I suspect more applications
to be added into the mix as the users begin to see how effective it
is.
Thanks for your time Vera, I find your answers to always be valuable
and helpful...
