MoveAllReplicas has rarely worked for me (I say it that way, because some people swear it's great; my experience has been otherwise). I recommend that you: [a] Upgrade to 2007 SP3 and use the new functionality in the console to modify all replicas [b] Use the script AddReplicaToPfRecursive.

Michael, I don't think you can do this in 2003 ADUC because we created a domain local test distribution group and added the distribution group from the account forest to this test distribution group. Nothing shows up in the GAL on the new Exchange 2010 server. I think that is because anything

The biggest advantage to splitting it up will be how fast you can get it back online in a DR situation. If you keep the databases on separate backup tapes, you can multi-thread the restore and have everything back online a lot faster. From: Steve Hart [mailto:sh...@wrightbg.com] Sent: Monday,

Absolutely. Recovery time should be your BIG focus when determining how big you want to allow your databases to get. I know with 2010, in a DAG, they say you can go as high as 2TB per database, but only 100GB if they are standalone databases. Not sure about 2007. Campbell, Rob
