Progressing along on my hardware refresh…2010 Exchange current on patches/packs. One corrupt mailbox to go but that is just a scheduling issue with the user.
I have two MB servers, replacing both. One is done and unisnstalled. I also have a CAS/Hub to replace. Current incoming mail flow is Internet >> Spam Appliance >> CAS/HUB. Outgoing is CAS/HUB>>Internet. Client access for OWA and active sync is via a reverse IIS proxy using URL rewrites. I have spun up a second CAS/HUB. Certs are already exported and installed and applied to the proper services. Now I need to cut over and uninstall the old one. Never done that on 2010 before. Anyone have a checklist or a link for a checklist? I intend to swap IP addresses unless there is a reason not to. That makes the firewall work and outgoing xlates on addresses a non-issue. That should also eliminate any need to mess with url rewrites or mess with dns internally. . To Do list is still under construction: Hub issues. 1) Move internet send connector. 2) Duplicate special/non-default receive connectors CAS Issues. 1) Change internal and external URL on OWA, ECP ActiveSync and Offline addy book. There is no POP or IMAP4 here. Boy it seems like this should be harder. What am I missing, no hurry this is a Friday after hours plan at this point.
