Subject: Removal of First Server in Site Question.


> Exchange 5.5 SP4
>
> We're getting ready to remove the first server from our site in the next
> couple of weeks.  I performed all the steps as defined in Q152959.  I do
> have one remaining question and it may be a stupid one at that.  Our
current
> system contains the following (using a,b,c,d,e to simplify):
>
> SYSTEMA - old server to be retired
> SYSTEMB - Exchange server for mailboxes
> - Routing Calculation Server
> SYSTEMC - Exchange server for mailboxes
> - Public Folders
> - Schedule+ Free Busy
> - Organizational Forms
> SYSTEMD - Exchange Server for Internet Mail Connector
> - Primary Domain Controller
> - OWA
> SYSTEME - Exchange Server for Internet Mail Connector
> - Backup Domain Controller
> - OWA
>
> Once I remove our old server from the site, I believe I should change the
> current DNS record for that system to point to another box.  I still need
to
> retain the MX records but I'll have to change the existing IP address.
> We've been using SYSTEMA.UC.EDU for a very long time, so all the users
> reference SYSTEMA.UC.EDU when creating profiles and such.  Which system
> would be best to add an alias for or am I off base on this issue?
