That is correct. If you were to install it as a new ORG/SITE, you could script EXMERGE to do copy and replace into the new server, but nothing that I am aware of from MS will allow live, real-time replication in the same manner as SQL Server. Also, keep in mind that EXMERGE data from one server to another will NOT allow automatic failover, and WILL break Single Instance Storage.

Splitting mailboxes between the two servers. -----Original Message----- From: Salvador Manzo [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2002 11:42 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: backup Server Live replication of Exchange data will require a thrid party solution, such as NSI Doubletake. I _really_ hope you've got a bit more in the budget, as we recently priced out for informational purposes and NSI charges US$2500 per server. Otherwise, the only use of the new server, IF IT WILL BE JOINING THE SAME ORG/SITE, would be for load balancing and isolation of mailboxes. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Beckett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2002 05:34 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: backup Server Equipment already purchased....server is already built and has NT on it. -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 6:25 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: backup Server It isn't SQL. It can't be done. What's the budget again? -----Original Message----- From: Bill Beckett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 11:33 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: backup Server Basically my plan was to have another server join the site and then replicate emails from the original server to the backup server at certain intervals.
