8. Next, choose the type of installation This exercise covers the Typical installation, which installs the Hub Transport, Client Access, and Mailbox server roles (If you plan to deploy cluster Mailbox server, Unified Messaging server, or Edge Transport server roles, or per- haps one or two server roles, you should choose Custom installation instead of Typical.)
On the Installation Type page, click Typical Exchange Server Installation as shown below
If you want to change the installation path, click on Browse, locate the appropriate path, and then click OK Click Next.
9. To establish mailflow between the Exchange 2000/2003 and the Exchange 2007 routing groups, you need to create a routing-group connector On the Mail Flow Settings page, click Browse to locate an Exchange 2003 Bridgehead server (In my lab environment, this is TOREX2K server.) Select an Exchange 2003 Bridgehead server to which you will create the initial routing group connector, as shown below, and then click OK Click Next to continue.

To perform an unattended installation, you can use something similar to the following syntax:
Setup/mode:install /roles:ClientAccess,HubTransport,Mailbox /LegacyRoutingServer:Exch2000.yourcompany.com
Finalizing Your Exchange 2007 Installation
Now that you’ve installed Exchange 2007 let’s move on to the post-installation tasks Some
of these post-installation tasks will validate the installation by verifying that it completed out any serious warnings or errors, while others will ensure that your server is operational and configured properly for your environment If you didn’t get any warnings or errors during the installation, there is a good chance that everything is in perfect shape, and then you just have
with-to go through finalizing your deployment, which is explained in the next section
The post-installation tasks include the following:
Exchange 2007 Services Verify that you have Exchange 2007 services installed and
started automatically
Review the Exchange Setup log files This involves reviewing the ExchangeSetup.log and
ExchangeSetup.msilog log files located under the %systemdrive%\ExchangeSetupLogs folder
to ensure that there are no errors related to Exchange 2007 installation The ExchangeSetup.log contains all the information about the status of prerequisite and system Readiness Checks
It also contains information about every task that is performed during the Exchange Server setup and is the most important log available for troubleshooting pre- and post-installation warning and errors
Verify Exchange folder structure Verify the Exchange folder structure created during
installation The default folder is located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server Table 7.5 shows the default folder structure
T A B L E 7 5 Table 7.5 The Default Exchange Folder Structure
Mailbox Schema files, dll files, database files, and database log files for
the Mailbox databases and public-folder databases
Trang 4Review event logs This involves examining the Windows application logs and the system
logs for any warnings, information, and errors related to the Exchange Server 2007 setup and services
Verify server roles are installed Ensure that you can open Exchange Management
Con-sole and can see your Exchange Server 2007 servers, including the one you just installed
Obtain the latest Exchange critical updates Exchange Server 2007 is constantly evolving
To avoid threats, problems, and security issues, it is essential to patch your Exchange Server 2007 with the latest service packs and security patches We recommend installing the latest patches and service pack after testing them in a lab
Run Microsoft Exchange Best Practice Analyzer It is a good idea to run the Exchange
Best Practices Analyzer tool to configure Exchange Server 2007 according to Microsoft Exchange best practices
Finalizing Deployment of the Exchange Server 2007 Server
Now that you’ve installed Exchange 2007, let’s finalize the deployment The first time you launch the Exchange Management Console, the Exchange node will be selected, and you’ll find two new tabs under this node: Finalize Deployment and End-to-End Scenario You must examine the recommended deployment tasks listed in both tabs and perform the ones that are relevant to your environment The tasks listed in Finalize Deployment tab are important because they apply to default features that need additional configuration Figure 7.2 shows you the Finalize Deployment tab
TransportRoles\agents Binary files for agents
TransportRoles\data Data files used by the mail queue and ADAM
TransportRoles\Logs Log files for message tracking and routing

Coexistence: Life After Installation
You’ve successfully installed and licensed Exchange 2007 Now, with Exchange Server 2007 running in an Exchange 2003 organization, you are in coexistence mode What’s next? The following sections describe the tasks you will need to perform to complete your migration, including moving mailboxes, configuring user profiles, and replicating public folders
In the Mean Time: Administration Tips for Exchange 2003
and Exchange 2007 Coexistence
In coexistence mode, there are several considerations for performing day-to-day tion tasks Some features are not available in Exchange 2007, which means you will need to use the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) MMC snap-in and Exchange System Manager On the other hand, there are certain features available only in Exchange 2007, which will require you to use Exchange 2007 tools Although the transition can be confusing, you’ll get the hang of it over time
administra-Some of the administrative tasks that you need to consider in coexistence mode are as follows:
Do not use the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) MMC snap-in to manage your Exchange 2007 recipient objects
Exchange Server 2007 server will inherit most of the Exchange 2003 global settings matically because these settings (for example, Internet message formats, SMTP connectors, recipient policies, and Exchange delegation permissions) are stored in Active Directory All users’ mailboxes on the Exchange Server 2007 servers will inherit these settings
auto- All organization-level settings should be managed using Exchange Management sole (EMC) or Exchange Management Shell (EMS) instead of using Exchange 2003 System Manager
Con- Perform all recipient management tasks by using EMC or EMS instead of the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) MMC snap-in
To create, manage, remove, and move Exchange 2007 mailbox-enabled users, use EMC or EMS You also can use Exchange 2007 management tools to manage an Exchange 2003 mail-box as long as the mailbox has been created with the Exchange System Manager tool
To create, manage, remove, and move Exchange 2003 mailbox-enabled users, use the ADUC MMC snap-in and Exchange System Manager
To manage any Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 mail-enabled objects in a coexistence environment, you can use the ADUC MMC snap-in, EMC, or EMS There is no restric-tion on managing mail-enabled objects, except for dynamic distribution groups The dynamic distribution group uses the new Exchange 2007 OPATH format for its recipient filter and cannot be managed by using the older Exchange tools Use EMC or EMS to maintain dynamic distribution groups
To manage Exchange 2003 Recipient Update Service (RUS), you have to use Exchange System Manager This service is no longer part of the Exchange 2007 product, and there-fore cannot be managed with EMC or EMS
To move mailboxes to Exchange Server 2007, use EMC or EMS instead of the Exchange System Manager
Trang 8Moving Mailboxes: Using the Exchange 2007 Move
Mailbox Wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet
The preferred method to migrate from Exchange 2000 or 2003 environments is the Move Mailbox wizard or the Move-Mailbox cmdlet The Move Mailbox wizard has been around for a while, and
it has been improved over the years In Exchange 2000, the Move Mailbox wizard did not have a scheduling option and had a lot of performance issues Exchange 2003 and later versions have excellent performance and a scheduling option that allows you to execute mailbox moves after office hours The Move Mailbox wizard supports multithreading operations to move multiple mailboxes simultaneously and has the ability to deal with corrupt mailbox entries If it encounters any problems, the wizard automatically attempts to move the mailbox item by item instead of all
Using Move Mailbox is also an effective way to minimize the risk associated with a tion from an Exchange Server 2003 server to an Exchange Server 2007 server The greatest advantage of this approach is in having the ability to build a new system with all the software, settings, third-party utilities, applications, patches, and tools before you even move mailboxes
migra-to your Exchange server
However, there are few disadvantages and limitations associated with Move Mailbox wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet You cannot use the Move Mailbox wizard to move mailboxes across forests In a multi-forest scenario, you must use the Move-Mailbox
cmdlet instead of the wizard Also, the Move Mailbox wizard is an intra-organizational migration tool that cannot be used as an inter-organizational migration tool This means
that you are limited to using the wizard within the same Exchange organization You can move mailboxes between Exchange 2000, Exchange 2003, and Exchange 2007 servers by using the Move Mailbox wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet
The Move-Mailbox cmdlet can communicate only with Windows 2003 domain controllers In a cross-forest mailbox move, if you have only a Windows 2000 domain controller, then you cannot use the Move-Mailbox cmdlet to move mailboxes to an Exchange 2007 forest
Here’s how the Move Mailbox process works The Move Mailbox wizard has a built-in thread functionality This feature dramatically reduces the time required to move multiple mail-boxes without stressing your Exchange server The wizard can make multiple MAPI connections
Trang 9multi-Migrating from Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003 323
to the source server, read contents, and write those contents from the source mailbox to the target mailbox on the target server As soon as it finishes the move operation, it updates the user’s attributes in the Active Directory with the location of the new housed server rather than the old mailbox server
This tool provides you with more granular control You can either move an individual user
or multiple users simultaneously Check out the following features:
Schedule In Exchange 2003 and later, you can schedule mailbox moves Of course, you
don’t ever want to perform mailbox moves during normal working hours because of the interruptions and lost productivity Scheduling allows you to define not only a start time but also an end time for the mailbox move If you are moving many mailboxes and you want to define an end time because of a scheduled reboot or other jobs, you can simply define an end time and it will terminate the outstanding move operations You can then reschedule to move the remaining mailboxes that were not moved in time
Error control The Move Mailbox wizard has built-in functionality to handle corrupted
items during the mailbox move If the wizard encounters corrupted items in a user’s box, it can do one of two things: it can be set to create a failure report without moving the mailbox, or it can skip the corrupted items, move the other items, and create a failure report at the end The beauty of this option is that you can define the number of corrupted items to skip and set the value
mail-Now that you are familiar with the Move Mailbox wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet, it’s time to move mailboxes from the existing Exchange servers to the Exchange 2007 envi-ronment In fact, the migration is as simple as selecting the mailbox or mailboxes, and then selecting the new destination server and database Exercise 7.12 outlines the steps for moving mailboxes with the Move Mailbox wizard
E X E R C I S E 7 1 2
Moving Mailboxes Using the Move Mailbox Wizard
To move mailboxes to the Exchange Server 2007, do the following:
1. Log on to your Exchange Server 2007.
2. Open the Exchange Management Console, and then select the Recipient Configuration.
3. Click on Mailbox container You will see a list of mailboxes In the details column, you will see mailboxes flagged as either Legacy Mailbox or as Mailbox User Mailboxes flagged as Legacy are still on Exchange Server 2003 and need to be migrated to Exchange Server 2007 Mailboxes already on Exchange Server 2007 are shown as Mailbox User.
4. To select the specific mailboxes that you want to move, you can click on a mailbox, hold down the Shift key and select a group of mailboxes, or hold down the Control key and click on the specific mailboxes that you want to migrate
5. Click on Move Mailbox action in the right column.
Trang 106. Choose the server, storage group, and the Mailbox database to which you want to move the mailbox(es), as show below Click Next to continue.
7. At the Move Options screen, shown below, you can adjust the settings to specify how you want to manage corrupted messages in a mailbox during the move You can choose Skip the Mailbox or Skip the Corrupted Messages if corrupted messages are found dur- ing the move process Usually, we choose to skip the corrupt messages if we want to complete the migration However, in some scenarios you may want to further trouble- shoot the problem and, therefore, you may want to choose Skip the Mailbox If you decide to skip the corrupted messages, you can also define the number of corrupted items to skip and set the value Click Next to continue.
E X E R C I S E 7 1 2 ( c o n t i n u e d )
Trang 11Migrating from Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003 325
You can perform the same operation using the Move-Mailbox cmdlet with the following syntax: move-mailbox -Identity mcitp-user1 -TargetDatabase
‘CN=Mailbox Database,CN=First StorageGroup,CN=InformationStore,CN= TOREX07,CN=Servers,CN=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT), CN=Administrative Groups,CN=MCITP,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services, CN=Configuration,DC=MCITP,DC=COM’
8. At the next screen, Move Schedule, you can choose to move the mailboxes immediately
or choose a different time when the users are not on the network Click Next to continue
9. At the Summary screen, review the choices you have made To make any changes, you can click Back Otherwise, click Move to begin moving the mailboxes.
10. Once you click Move, the actual move time depends on several factors, including width and speed of your network, amount of data to be moved, location of Exchange servers, and LAN card duplex mode This is something that should be thoroughly tested
band-in the lab After the Move Mailbox wizard opens the source, opens the destband-ination, and successfully moves the selected mailboxes, a summary screen of the completed actions appears Click Finish.
E X E R C I S E 7 1 2 ( c o n t i n u e d )
Trang 12Configuring User Profiles
After you successfully move mailboxes from Exchange Server 2003 to Exchange Server 2007, the next step is to update the Outlook profile for each user so that users can log on to the relo-cated mailboxes There are different ways to update Outlook profiles You can do it either man-ually (which requires lot of resources and administrative efforts) or by using third-party utilities (which requires additional software components, software, and licenses) Depending on your environment, keep running your Exchange 2003 servers for few weeks, if possible This will help your Outlook clients update their profiles automatically without using any utilities
In Outlook 97, 2000, 2003, and XP, the Outlook profile on each user’s system is pointed
to the old Exchange Server 2003 If you decide to keep running your Exchange 2003 servers for few weeks, the next time the user opens his Outlook client, the Exchange Server 2003 server will automatically update the profile with the new Exchange Server 2007 information
If you immediately remove the server or decommission the old server, you have to update the profile manually or by using some third-party utilities to achieve this task
Continuing to run the Exchange 2003 server for few weeks will allow users an opportunity
to open the Outlook client so that their profile will update automatically If some users are out
of the office or vacation, their Outlook profile will not be updated and will still point to the Exchange 2003 server In those cases, you will need to update their profile manually or using third-party utilities
Here is a general explanation of this process:
1. The user accesses the mailbox by opening his Outlook client Because the profile contains the information for the old Exchange 2003 server, the Outlook client connects the user to that server
2. The Exchange Server 2003 server updates the client that the mailbox is now located on the Exchange Server 2007 server
3. The client updates the Exchange Server 2007 entry in the client’s registry Once this update occurs, it does not need to be repeated
4. The client sends requests to the Exchange Server 2007
5. Subsequent logons from that client go directly to the Exchange Server 2007 as the client has new server information
To update the default Outlook profile to reflect the new server information, you must run Exprofre.exe on each client computer Please keep in mind that this tool is not a manual update It is just another method to update the Outlook Profile by using the Exchange utilities This tool collects the information from both the Active Directory and the existing default Out-look profile to determine the name of the server where the user’s mailbox is being hosted It then backs up the existing Outlook profile, modifies it with the new Exchange Server 2007 informa-tion, and updates the client registry settings to reflect the changes If there are any problems, users can simply restore the old profile To help you troubleshoot problems during the profile update process, the tool generates log file, which can be used to trace any particular step
Exprofre.exe is a command line tool used to update Outlook profiles after you move mailboxes from Exchange Server 2003 to Exchange Server 2007 or across your Exchange organizations.
Trang 13Migrating from Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003 327
Exprofre.exe is compatible only with Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2000, and Windows XP It does not run on Windows NT 4.0 or any 9X operating systems.
We recommend running this tool via login script before the user opens his mailbox If the user is already running Outlook, the program will warn you that Outlook needs to be closed before you execute this tool
Replicating Public Folders from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007
This section focuses on migrating public folders, which need to be replicated before missioning the old Exchange 2003 or 2000 servers
decom-Microsoft has introduced many different utilities and tools to migrate from Exchange 2003
or 2000 environments to the Exchange 2007 environment In this section, we will use the PFMigrate utility to create public and system folder replicas on Exchange 2007, and then remove them from an Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2000 server
Exercise 7.13 outlines the steps to move public folders using the PFMigrate utility
E X E R C I S E 7 1 3
Moving Public Folders Using the PFMigrate Utility
Use the following steps to move public folders to Exchange 2007:
1. Log on to the server on which you want to run this command.
2. Insert the Exchange Server 2003 CD into the CD-ROM drive.
3. Click Start Run, then type cmd.exe Press Enter or click OK.
4 Type cd E:\support\Exdeploy and then press Enter.
5 Type pfmigrate.wsf /S:Exchange2003server /T:Exchange2007server /R /F:c:\pflog.log
to create a report of public-folder replication between the Exchange 2003 and Exchange
2007 servers.
6 Type pfmigrate.wsf /S:Exchange2003server /T:Exchange2007server /SF /A /F:c:\
pflog.log to replicate system folders from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007.
7 Type pfmigrate.wsf /S:Exchange2003server /T:Exchange2007server /A /F:c:\pflog.log to
replicate public folders from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007.
8 After all public folders have replicated, type pfmigrate.wsf /S:Exchange2003server /
T:Exchange2007server /D to remove the old replicas from the Exchange Server 2003 server.
9. Open the pflog.log file to ensure that replication has occurred successfully and that a copy of each public folder exists on the new server.
Trang 14Migrating from Third-Party
Messaging Systems
In previous sections we discussed migration strategies and procedures to migrate from a legacy environment to Exchange 2007 This section focuses on migration from third-party messaging systems (or simply “non-Exchange environments”) to the Exchange 2007 environment These migrations generally require some transition system, a third-party product, and connector to migrate user emails, calendar information, address book, contacts, and other data to the Exchange 2007 environment These types of migrations can be challenging In nearly every migration, you may need to run both environments in parallel for a long time The process to migrate from a non-Exchange environment to Exchange 2007 involves installing Exchange
2007 and then migrating mailboxes, user data, and other information to Exchange 2007
Migration from SendMail, Qmail, and GroupWise to Exchange 2007 is outside the scope of the exam and the scope of this book This section provides an overview of the process of analyzing, planning, and migrating from Lotus Notes to Exchange 2007 We will discuss tools, utilities, scenarios, methodol- ogies, procedures, and processes related to Lotus Notes migration
As you know, many companies are making the decision to migrate to Microsoft platforms Many Lotus Notes/Domino customers have wanted to migrate to Microsoft Exchange, but delayed the change because of the lack of tools, support, documentation, and experience Recently, Microsoft has introduced Microsoft Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino to help customers transition from Notes to Microsoft’s unified communications and collaboration platforms that are part of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, Microsoft Office 2007 system, and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 technologies When planning a migration from Notes, you will need to consider several factors, including the Domino Directory, messaging, and applications, as shown in Figure 7.5

Trang 15Migrating from Third-Party Messaging Systems 329
The Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino 2007 is designed for interoperability, coexistence, directory synchronization, and migration from Notes to Active Directory and Exchange Server 2007 There are many new features in this tool as compared to Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino 2007 as compared to previous versions of Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino, which include the PowerShell foundation, ACL migrations, user migrations, scripting, multi-threading, and more These features are intended to help you when you’re migrating accounts, mailboxes, and applications and doing analysis The Transporter Suite consists of the follow-ing components:
Directory Connector This component synchronizes objects between the Domino
Direc-tory and Active DirecDirec-tory It is similar to Microsoft Connector for Lotus Notes used for
in Exchange 2003, which was used to transfer messages between the two messaging tems and to provide directory synchronization in both directions
sys-Free/Busy Connector Like its name suggests, this allows users to see calendar free/busy
information across the two messaging environments
Directory Migration This component performs the directory migration between the two
systems, and it creates user accounts in Active Directory for the Domino Directory users
Mailbox Migration This component performs the migration of user data from Domino
mail databases to Exchange 2007 mailboxes
Application Migration The component allows for the migration of Domino applications
to Microsoft SharePoint
To provide a familiar interface for Exchange system administrators, Transporter Suite is equipped with the Transporter Management Console, which is very similar to Exchange Management Console It also comes with Transporter Command Shell, which is similar to Exchange Management Shell, so that administrators can take an advantage of scripting Additionally, the Transporter Suite allows you to do the following:
Analyze the Domino application infrastructure
Plan, prepare, and synchronize the messaging system (i.e., Domino 6.x/7.x Domino Directory) with Active Directory and Microsoft Exchange
Coordinate directory coexistence by using Directory Connector for Lotus Domino
Coordinate messaging coexistence between Domino 6.x/7.x and Microsoft Exchange 2007
by using native SMTP mail routing (SMTP provides scalability and no additional tools to install, monitor, manage, and troubleshoot Exchange 2007 no longer needs a “Notes Con-nector” because it uses SMTP to transfer mail to/from Domino.)
Synchronize address books
Migrate mailboxes to Exchange 2007
Move applications to SharePoint 2007
If you have Domino 6.x/7.x, you can use the Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino to migrate
to Exchange 2007; however, if you have Domino 5.x, your options are limited to the following:
Option 1: Upgrade your Domino 5.x environment to Domino 6.x /7.x and then use the
Transporter Suite to migrate to Exchange 2007
Trang 16Option 2: Use third-party tools such as Quest Notes Migrator for Exchange Quest
Migrator allows you to do the following:
Convert users’ mail, calendars, tasks, and personal address books and stores them in users’ new mailboxes on the Exchange Server 2007
Utilize its reporting system, which gives you up-to-the-minute status on migration progress
Schedule activities to minimize impacts on your organization and to avoid down time
Migrate multiple users from multiple servers simultaneously to speed up the entire migration process
Option 3: Install Exchange 2003 in a single-server organization, and then install
Microsoft Exchange 2007 in the same organization While in the mixed mode, you can install the Microsoft Connector for Lotus Notes on Exchange Server 2003 to allow coexistence between Lotus Notes and Microsoft Exchange, and then you can use the Mailbox Move wizard to move the mailboxes from Lotus Notes to Exchange 2007 instead of Exchange 2003 Once you finish moving the mailboxes, you can then decom-mission the Exchange Server 2003 and the Domino server
Migration from Notes involves detailed planning, testing, and proof of concept It is mon to find that many businesses have applications data in their Notes environment In addi-tion to migrating the mailboxes, you must migrate the application data to SharePoint 2007
com-Migrating application data to SharePoint is out of the scope of the exam, and
is not covered this book.
To migrate from Lotus Notes/Domino to Microsoft Exchange 2007, Microsoft mends that you plan your project in four phases:
recom-Directory integration This phase synchronizes user name and email address information
between Active Directory and the Domino Directory
Free/busy lookups This phase configures free/busy services between Active Directory and
the Domino Directory
Mail migration This phase involves moving users’ mail database data from Lotus
Dom-ino to the Exchange server
Application migration This phase involves moving applications from Lotus Domino to
Microsoft SharePoint
Email migration projects pose lot of challenges and, if not done properly, can result
in numerous pre- and post-migration issues Preparation is essential for email migration Make sure that you read the online documentation about Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino 2007 (found at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/interopmigration/bb403105.aspx) and understand the ins and outs of this tool because it has some built-
in limitations, such as version support As stated before, this tool can support only Lotus Domino 6.x and 7.x for interoperability If you are using Lotus Domino 5.x, you may have
to use third-party tools or use an intermediary Exchange 2003 messaging system to migrate from Domino to Exchange 2007 At the time of writing, this tool is not supported
on Windows Vista
Trang 17Migrating from Third-Party Messaging Systems 331
A common migration path would include the following steps:
1. Installing the Notes client and Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino 2007
2. Establishing messaging connectivity between the two messaging systems
3. Establishing directory synchronization to share the address books between the users in both messaging systems
4. Configuring free/busy lookups so that users in both messaging environments will be able
to see users’ availability on the other system
5. Migrating users and data from Notes to Active Directory, so that the Domino users’ email addresses are represented in the Exchange Global Address List (GAL) Once you migrate users from Notes, you can then move the users’ mailbox items from Notes to Exchange 2007
6. Using Microsoft Application Analyzer for Lotus Domino to start the process of analyzing Domino applications and then migrating applications After initial assessment and test-ing, you can then migrate to existing Microsoft SharePoint or off-the-shelf applications
7. Decommissioning Domino servers
The next section covers the initial seven phases of migration Migrating application data to SharePoint is out of the scope of the exam and is not covered in this book The steps that are included here provide high-level steps that are involved in a migration The migration process that follows here is not a single way to migrate, but merely demonstrates several steps to migrate to an Exchange environment Before migrating to Exchange 2007 in your environ-ment, you should go through all of these steps to make sure that you fully understand the migration process and are ready for transition
Step 1: Installing the Notes Client and Transporter
Suite for Lotus Domino 2007
The first step in the process is to install the Notes Client and Transporter Suite onto the Exchange 2007 The following section gives step-by-step instructions to perform the installation Make sure that you have Microsoft Management Console 3.0 and Windows PowerShell 1.0 installed before you install and configure a workstation with Lotus Notes 6.x or 7.x client to access the Domino domain Also, Exchange Management Console 2007 is required for user and/
or mail migrations
Exercise 7.14 outlines the instructions to install the Notes 7.x client
E X E R C I S E 7 1 4
Installing the Lotus Notes 7.x Client
Use the following steps to install the Notes 7.x client:
1. Log on to the server on which you want to run this command.
Trang 18Once you install the Notes client, you have to configure it to connect with the Domino server The steps may vary according to your configuration Please check the Domino documentation
to configure the Notes client Once you configure the Notes client, the next step is to install the Transporter Suite for Lotus Domino 2007—Exercise 7.15 outlines the instructions
2.

Step 3: Establishing Directory Synchronization
The third step in the process is to establish directory synchronization This step ensures that both organizations have consistent Global Address Lists (GALs), which means that users in both orga-nizations can see every other user from within the Exchange organization and Domino messaging environment It is important to understand that users will be synchronized into Active Directory
as mail-enabled contacts, not as the mail-enabled users During synchronization, you can create a specific organizational unit (OU) to keep the Domino contacts You also can choose to use a built-
in OU, such as Domino Users Similarly, your Exchange recipients will be synchronized into the Domino system in the default NAMES.NSF directory Depending on your environment, you also can configure whether or not your Exchange recipients are synchronized into Domino

Step 7: Decommissioning Domino Servers
The seventh step in the process is to decommission Domino mail servers Make sure that you have migrated applications from the Domino server to Microsoft technologies The general guidelines to achieve this are as follows:
1. Verify messaging functionality by sending test messages to migrated users
2. Send test messages to and from the Internet to migrated users
3. Migrate all the applications to Microsoft technologies
4. Verify that all outbound and inbound messages are routed properly between all sites by sending test messages to users
5. Back up Domino servers
6. Turn off Domino servers and do testing Make sure you don’t receive any complaints, and there are no issues Leave the server off for a while before taking more steps to clean up the environment
7. Uninstall the Domino server
Decommissioning the Old Infrastructure
This section focuses on removing the last Exchange Server 2003 server from your Exchange organization Once the last migration phase is complete, the source messaging system may be decommissioned Decommissioning the Exchange Server 2003 server is not just turning off your system, removing it from Active Directory, and disconnecting it from your network It
is a lengthy process, and it should be taken seriously Decommissioning the source systems requires detailed planning to ensure that there are no further dependencies among these sys-tems and that no problems are inadvertently created
A Common Decommissioning Mistake
In the real world, it is common to forget to move one particular component from the previous version of Exchange to Exchange 2007 Later on, you notice that the required component is still running on the previous version of Exchange To resolve these kinds of problems, you may have no choice but to bring the Exchange Server 2003 server back into the production environment or use low-level Active Directory tools to remove references to the Exchange Server 2003 server If your Exchange legacy system won’t decommission properly, it may still
be present in the configuration partition and will remain in the Exchange organization figuration tables.
Trang 28con-If you are removing the last Exchange Server 2003 server from your organization, you must ensure that you are not using any of the following features that are no longer supported in Exchange 2007:
Microsoft Mobile Information Server
Instant Messaging Service
Exchange 2000 Conferencing Server
cc:Mail connector
MS Mail connector
Key Management Service
Exchange Chat Service
Similarly, two Exchange 2003 features are no longer supported in Exchange 2007:
NNTP (Network News Transport Protocol)
GroupWise Connector
Removing a previous version of Exchange server from your organization also requires that the account delegated to the removal process must have the Exchange Organization Administrator role on Exchange Server 2007 servers and the Exchange Full Administrator role on the Exchange Server
2003 server.
As an example, just imagine that you have an Exchange Server 2003 server in your ment that is still hosting public folders to keep Schedule+ free/busy information to support Outlook 2003 or the previous version of Outlook As a part of decommissioning, if you just unplugged this server from the network without moving the Schedule+ free/busy information
environ-to Exchange Server 2007, your Outlook calendar would senviron-top working immediately To avoid this problem, you must ensure that either you have migrated public folders into the Exchange
2007 environment or you have only Outlook 2007 clients running in your environment Why? You don’t need the presence of public folders with Outlook 2007 because Availability services provide Schedule+ free/busy information to Outlook 2007 clients via the Web.
Exchange 2003 Bridgehead servers can provide another example If you simply unplug this server without properly decommissioning it from the Exchange organization, email routing may stop immediately because Bridgehead servers are responsible for routing email mes- sages Removing Exchange 2003 Bridgehead servers without replacing them with the Hub Transport server may cause serious problems in your email routing and eventually stop mes- saging functionality To avoid these problems, you must plan your decommissioning in advance and then implement your plan.
Trang 29Decommissioning the Old Infrastructure 343
Once your organization no longer needs Exchange Server 2003 servers, it’s time to upgrade to the Exchange 2007 organization by removing/decommissioning the older ver-sions of Exchange The following general steps for decommissioning your Exchange 2000/
2003 server from your Exchange 2007 environment are adapted from by Microsoft’s online documentation
1. Move all the mailboxes to an Exchange Server 2007 server
2. Verify messaging functionality by sending test messages to users
3. Send test messages to and from the Internet
4. Move all the public-folder replicas from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007
5. Move the generation process of each offline address book (OAB) to an Exchange Server
10. Turn off your Exchange 2003 servers and do testing Make sure you don’t receive any complaints, and there are no routing issues We recommend leaving that server off for a while before you start taking more steps to clean up the Active Directory and Exchange Organization
11. Delete the routing-group connector between previous versions of Exchange and Exchange 2007
12. Delete all routing-group connectors to the Exchange Server 2003 server
13. Delete Exchange 2000/2003 recipient policies
14. Delete the domain Recipient Update Services on Exchange Server 2003 servers
15. Use ADSI Edit to delete the Recipient Update Service (Enterprise configuration)
16. Uninstall the last Exchange 2000/2003 server from the Add/Remove Programs applet of the Control Panel, and be sure to select Remove as the mode rather than Change
17. Remove routing groups
Trang 30We’ve covered a lot of ground in this chapter, all of it focused on migrating from Exchange
2003 to Exchange 2007 We covered migrating from legacy and non-Exchange environments
to Exchange 2007 We examined different migration strategies and migration concerns in mixed and coexistence modes We spent a great amount of time preparing our Active Direc-tory forest for an Exchange Server 2007 deployment, and then we took a step-by-step walk through installing Exchange 2007 prerequisites, which eventually led us to Exchange 2007 installation We then discussed how to move mailboxes from Exchange 2003 to Exchange Server 2007 by using the Move Mailbox GUI wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet Finally,
we covered decommissioning the Exchange 2003 environment
Exam Essentials
Understand the difference between migration and transition The term migration is often used
to refer the migration process and methodologies to migrate from one messaging system to an Exchange organization without retaining configuration data of the old messaging system (as in the case of merging two Exchange organizations) This term also applies to migrating data from other messaging environments like Lotus Notes, GroupWise, and Sendmail to Exchange 2007 The term
transition refers to moving data from legacy Exchange systems to Exchange 2007 and then
decom-missioning the old Exchange systems
Understand what is involved in preparing an Active Directory environment for a transition to Exchange Server 2007 There are several steps involved in preparing your Active Directory
forest Before implementing Exchange 2007 in your environment, you should use tools and utilities like DCDIAG, NETDIAG, REPLMON, and REPLADMIN to ensure that your Active Directory forest is healthy After checking the health of your Active Directory forest, the next step in the process is to change the domain functional level to Windows 2000 Server native or higher and then change your forest functional level to Windows 2003 Server native Once we convert the forest and domain mode, the process also requires changing the Exchange mode
to native mode The next step is to prepare Active Directory schema by using switches able with Setup.com You must understand the usage of these switches for the exam
avail-Understand the Move Mailbox wizard and the Move-Mailbox cmdlet The preferred
method to migrate from the Exchange 2000/2003 environment is to use the Move Mailbox wizard or the Move-Mailbox cmdlet You should understand that Exchange 2007 you are no longer allowed to use Active Directory Users and Computers to move mailboxes The Move Mailbox wizard supports multithreading operations to move multiple mailboxes simulta-neously, along with scheduling to schedule the move after office hours To automate the move process, you also can use the Move-Mailbox cmdlet and one of the several switches available with the Move-Mailbox cmdlet
Trang 31Exam Essentials 345

Answers to Review Questions
1. E It is not possible to do an in-place upgrade from Exchange 5.5, Exchange 2000, or Exchange
2003 to Exchange 2007 as Exchange 2007 is an x64-bit application, and it requires an x64-bit version of Windows Server 2003 to run on Exchange 2007 is designed and tested for x64-bit hardware and operating systems; therefore, it requires an x64-bit version of Windows Server
2003 Likely, the servers you have been using for previous versions may not be suitable for Exchange 2007 when it comes to OS and hardware bus speed Therefore, the migration path from Exchange 5.5, Exchange 2000, and Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 typically requires an upgrade of hardware and operating system
2. C It is not possible to re-harvest your Exchange Server 2003 servers for Exchange 2007 deployment unless you have x64-bit hardware and operating system for your Exchange
2003 environment Exchange 2007 is designed and tested for x64-bit hardware and ating systems; therefore, it requires an x64-bit version of Windows Server 2003 It is likely that the servers you have been using for previous versions are not suitable for Exchange
oper-2007 when it comes to OS and hardware bus speed Therefore, you may have to upgrade the operating system and hardware Exchange 2007 is available for x32-bit hardware plat-form, but only for testing purposes You are not allowed to use x32-bit version in the pro-duction environment
3. C The Exchange 2007 Enterprise edition is designed to meet the messaging requirements of large corporate environments where servers require more availability and redundancy The Enterprise edition can support 50 storage groups and 50 databases, whereas the Standard edition can support only 5 storage groups and 5 databases The Enterprise edition also can support local continuous replication (LCR) and Exchange 2007 clustering
4. E The Enterprise edition can support 50 storage groups and 50 databases, no database storage limit, local continuous replication (LCR), and Exchange 2007 clustering
5. B Virus scanning is not the native mode or mixed mode feature You have to buy an additional virus scanning software for your organization
6. B NETDIAG, DCDIAG, and REPLMON are Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 support tools used to check the health of DNS, Active Directory, domain controllers, operation masters, GC, sites, site links, and more These tools are useful, but to ensure your existing Exchange organization is ready to accommodate Exchange 2007, you should run ExBPA 2.7
or above Besides checking for configuration errors in your Exchange deployment, ExBPA allows you to run a Readiness Check against your existing Exchange deployment and provides you with a to-do list of changes and decisions that need to be made before Exchange 2007 can
be deployed The Exchange Readiness Check performs a deep analysis of all Exchange 2000/
2003 servers in your organization to verify that they have necessary updates, service packs, and configuration in place to support Exchange 2007
7. A The PrepareLegacyExchangePermissions switch will create the ExchangeLegacyInterop universal security group in your Active Directory forest It allows previous versions of Exchange servers to send email to the Exchange 2007 Mailbox servers through the Hub Transport servers
Trang 388. B The PrepareSchema switch will prepare the Active Directory schema for coexistence between Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 It will update the schema with Exchange 2007–specific objects, classes, and attributes by importing LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF) files and making modifications to existing classes, objects, and attributes.
9. C PrepareAD will automatically run the /PrepareLegacyExchangePermissions and /PrepareSchema commands for you
10. D PrepareDomain must be run in every domain Instead of running PrepareDomain command
in each domain, you can run PrepareAllDomains in the root domain to achieve the same results
11. A, B, C, E, and F Setup.com /PrepareAD won’t add any local and remote domain Answer A, B, C, E, and F are the activities perform by Setup.com /PrepareAD
12. A, B, D, and E You don’t need Microsoft Transaction Services to install Exchange 2007 Answers A, B, D, and E are prerequisites

Planning Exchange Server 2007
Interoperability
MICROSOFT EXAM OBJECTIVES COVERED
IN THIS CHAPTER:
Plan interoperability with Exchange in separate organizations
Plan coexistence with Exchange 2000 Server and Exchange 2003 Server in a single organization
Plan interoperability with third-party messaging systems

Trang 40As you plan an Exchange Server 2007 deployment, you must consider numerous factors that depend on the systems that are cur-rently in place and that Exchange is working with Exchange 2007 supports connectivity and coexistence with Exchange Server 2003, Exchange 2000 Server, feder-ated partners, and Lotus Notes with native tools This chapter walks through some of the interop-erability and coexistence scenarios that Exchange 2007 supports.
The test and this chapter are slanted toward planning more than operations Therefore, this chapter does not focus on step-by-step procedures For additional information on step-by-step procedures, refer to the Exchange 2007 documentation from Microsoft
Any messaging organization, including one with Exchange 2003 or older versions, will have a period of coexistence and will require careful planning for interoperability If you do not plan for interoperability, message flow or supporting messaging services may not work between the various versions of Exchange or other messaging systems
Planning Coexistence with Exchange 2000 Server and Exchange Server 2003 in a Single Organization
This section covers one of the most common coexistence situations: coexistence with a legacy Exchange organization, including 2000, 2003, or a combination of both If you are still running
or working with Exchange Server 5.5, all traces of Exchange Server 5.5 computers must be removed from the organization before Exchange 2007 can be installed and supported Table 8.1 outlines which versions of Exchange can coexist with Exchange 2007
