Not to mention all the crap that the framework shoves into the metabase.
It's time for me to upgrade my Domain Controller and Exchange blog post. Thanks for the tickler. And I don't mean French. Regards, Michael B. Smith MCSE/Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 2:03 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Cluster Server When you stop being a DC/GC IIS is pretty much removed. Exchange stores some stuff in the IIS Metabase, so all that exchange relies on in Metabase goes away. Additionally it is not really a good (supported) idea to cluster a Domain controller. From: Joe Heaton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 10:57 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Cluster Server Last I heard, it's not recommended to have Exchange on a DC. However, if you already do, don't just demote the server. You have to uninstall Exchange from that box first, or you'll get into a very difficult situation....isn't that right Don? Joe Heaton _____ From: Dennis Rogov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 10:49 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Cluster Server Hi All I have two questions: Is there any issue to have your exchange 03 server be a domain controller and a global catalog at the same time? I am looking to purchase a new additional server Exchange 03 server to make a cluster for instant failover in case the main mail server goes offline. What are my options?
