The naming convention is static, so one way or another I need to use 4 letters and then 3 numbers with no deviation.

And dont forget the Windows Cluster Name. Since users and apps connect to the mailbox cluster name and that's what you see in EMC, I dont see the point of giving the cluster name anything like "virtual" or "Cluster". ________________________________ From: Matt Lathrum [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 14, 2008 7:02 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Naming convention suggestions Does anyone have any naming convention suggestions for me? I'm working on a deployment for Exchange 2007 SP1 with 2 node CCR clusters, edge transport, hub transport, and CAS servers. My naming constraint is 4 letters followed by 3 numbers. For instance, for the mailbox nodes, I was thinking of something like: Virtual Physical EXVS011 EXPN011 EXPN012 EXVS021 EXPN021 EXPN022 VS is Virtual Server and PN is Physical Node. 11 stands for cluster 1 node 1, and 22 stands for cluster 2 node 2. I don't want to make the names too confusing. I was wondering how other people named their larger installations and if they had any suggestions for me. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja ~ ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja ~
