I'm not qualified to advise on that scale, but I can tell you this much, that the design of the Exchange topology has to be intimately entwined with the AD topology. Infact it's really one design. And the versions of OSs, NOSs, and Exchange is quite critical. I would suggest that if you want advice from the experts, you provide more info on those two aspects, and focus your questions on more specific aspects of the design.

Subject: Exchange Design Best Practices Questions


Dear List:

Given scenario of 1500 - 2000 users with mailbox size of 2GB each
spread all over north america. There will be BES in place too.
How would one design an Exchange environment that covers high
availability, redundant with failover and good backup strategy?
Need to pick some ideas from the real world experts :)
things I am considering: SAN, redundant WAN links, second site with
third party failover (XO soft?) at least 2-4 servers per site?

Any comments appreciated.
Thanks.
Chee
