RE: Exchange on VM
As everyone else has said, keep an eye on the disk IO. But as it is exchange 2007, there is a lot lower IO requirement that Exchange 2003. I take it you are thinking about running it on VMware's ESX3.5 ? If so think carefully about the network design, especially if you are planning on having 2 or more ESX hosts, and want to use the features such as HA and DRS. Cheers Matt -Original Message- From: John Hornbuckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 09 May 2008 18:42 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange on VM I have pretty much no experience running VMs on servers, other than a 1-day VMWare training session I attended this past winter. As I migrate us to Windows Server 2008 this summer, I'll be playing more with virtualization. I'm hoping to consolidate a few servers into one bigger server, and am looking at running Exchange 2007 on a virtual Server 2008 machine. Is anyone doing this successfully? Any caveats?

RE: Exchange on VM
No, I'd be using Server 2008's built-in VM capabilities. -Original Message- From: Davies,Matt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 12, 2008 4:27 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange on VM As everyone else has said, keep an eye on the disk IO.

RE: Personal Blackberries
Don't know about (1) (that seems to be the general theme though) but we are looking into allowing personal BB onto our BES. They will have to put up IT Policy and most likely have to pay the license fee themselves. From: Kevin Lundy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 09 May 2008 17:11 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Personal Blackberries I have 2 questions related to Blackberries 1) Is there an elegant way to block blackberries from accessing corporate email via OWA? I thought about urlscan to filter the user agent, but I have read that doesn't work. 2) How many people allow personal devices on their BES? If you do, does the company pay the license fee or the user. Thanks Kevin ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
