I'm sure there'll be complications, but basically, yes, should work, assuming that the files are okay on the old server, of course. When the time comes to start it up, just start the IS service first. You'll get at least one error indicating that you have to run isinteg /patch, but after that it should work.
Remember when installing Exchange on the new server to not join any existing site, but use the same org and site names as before. -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Chris H [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 11:29 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Dead Exchange Server PT II Yet another question . . . Do you think it would work if I copied all the \exchsrvr directories off of all the disks on the server, then: -- rebuilt the server here, same server name, ip , etc. -- installed exchange -- replaced the dirs with the dirs from the old server ? Same sp's and file locations obviously as well. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________ This message is private or privileged.
