Finally working on migrating 2007 to '10. Current setup is a single CAS/HUB and
two mailbox servers all 2007. There is no edge. Incoming hits a spam appliance
that feeds the hub. Outgoing is done with the hub. OWA is published through an
ISA 2006. Seems pretty straightforward, put up a new CAS
Right. Remember for that to happen, you'll need to add your 2010 HT to the Send
Connector. Essentially, your Send Connector will stay the same, so you can
control which HT server(s) handle outbound mail by adding/removing them from
the Source Server.
It was more efficient for us to add the
Excellent, that makes perfect sense. One last though just came to mind. Inbound.
Current flow is through a spam filter then to the 2007 HUB. I will need the 07
HUB to forward to the 2010 HUB for the '10 Mailboxesis there a connector
for that or is it smart enough to figure that out? I also
Either way you do it, the HTs will be intelligent enough to work it out. We
changed our inbound to 2010 quite early on (using a smarthost that accepts mail
from the internet). Again, the efficiencies of routing the mail should be your
concern I think - if you don't mind an extra hop from 2010
The mail attribute also has to be changed to reflect the new primary SMTP
address.

Hi,
Below are the configs of a totally default Client Servername receive
connector.
Anyone with a mailbox is allowed to use the connector (that is the Permissions
Group tab).
On the Authentication tab, if you want to support plaintext authentication,
then uncheck the box after Offer Basic
We have around 6000 active mailboxes (2GB) and 23,000 small (20MB) alumni
mailboxes.
All Exchange 2010 is on VMware 4.1i backed by NetApp storage.
Prod is 4 machines, 2x4 CPU's and 96GB RAM. On that we have 4 mailbox hosts
with 48GB RAM and 4 CAS/HT nodes with 12GB RAM.
DR are the same
FOr 100 to 200 users gut reaction is that's absolutely fine. The Mailbox
Sizing Spreadsheet will help but you're not likely be taxing any half-decent
RAID.
I'd probably increase the RAM because it's a cheap win.
Backup? I'm not sure if you're asking just for Exchange or in general. You
can
Thanks for the feedback. I am looking at a backup solution as well as
planning for a disaster using something like Symantecs utility which
performs an image of the system that can be recovered on another Hyper-V or
VMware host. I have never used a tool like this for Exchange so thought
I'd get a
Take a look at Veeam, has some nifty Exchange hooks for backup/restore.

For Hyper-V/VMware specific backups, Veeam always seems to get a ton of good
press as it will also do replication between locations/servers without the need
for shared storage.
I haven't ever used it, but I don't seem to see/hear much negative about it so
I'd definitely consider it.
If you're
Thanks for the great info! Will look into Veeam as well!

+1 on Veeam, it is a pretty good solution. Only caveat with it when it comes to
Exchange is that you require Enterprise licencing for Exchange backup/restore,
and a restore will fire up a copy of the VM to then extract the Mailbox data
from it. There are of course a lot of traditional solutions
I looked at Veeam, but apparently it doesn't backup servers that aren't
virtual. testing the new version of Backup Exec. Has greatly improved

Have you considered cloud based Exchange instead of setting up a
complicated, expensive solution for 100-200 people?
Just wondering

Yes we have, but there is an internal app that requires a local copy
unfortunately. We tested a hosted solution but it wouldn't work with the
app.
Thanks,

Steve,
Do you mean we'd have to purchase the Enterprise version of Exchange to
leverage the Veeam backup/restore feature?
