It sounds a sensible approach to me; it's what I did on one of my recent projects, i.e. leave the old server for a week before decommission.
Can you describe how you migrated the public folders to E2K7? Did you use the Move All Replicas option, for example? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Albert Duro Sent: 13 May 2008 16:09 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: LCR vs Replication Thank you, and I've been working on that, believe me. Do you have any thoughts on the wisdom of not killing off the old server after everything was transferred to the new one?
