Getting the new Exchange server in there and moving mailboxes, PFs, RG master 
role, etc, is fairly easy. The main work is involved in getting the old server 
out of the mix. This (http://support.microsoft.com/?id=822931) should help 
somewhat.

Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Exchange 2000 to 2003 - upgrade by running in parallel.


Hello all,

I am intending to upgrade an Exchange 2000 environment to Exchange 2003 via a 
parallel installation as a opposed to an upgrade, as the hardware will not 
handle an upgrade

The environment consists of a Front End Server and 4 Mailbox servers, there is 
no clustering involved.

Does anyone have any experience of doing the installation vai this method and 
are there any major gotcha's? Any recomedations or perhaps a document? All I 
can find on ms is physical upgrade documentation.


Many thanks,





Regards,

Mark Parris
