Hi,
Has anyone ever switched their DR server to their Production Exchange server? I have a DR Exchange server that I use to frequently perform DR tests. The specs: Computername, Domain, Windows 2k and Exchange service packs on the production server are exactly the same as the DR server. What I want to do is after hours(once a backup of the Dir and IS is run)stop the Exchange services on the production server and take if off the domain and sync the servers. Then, take the DR server off of the test domain (which is exactly the same as our production domain) and bring it online on the production domain. Once online, install Exchange 5.5 with sp4 and run a restore of the Ex Dir and the IS). Once the Exxchange service have started theoretically I should be able to log back in to my mailbox via Outlook. Has anyone done this type of scenario and experienced problems?
