Is your Front-End Server also a quad Pentium? Make sure that it is sized correctly.
What's the harm? Plenty, but I'm tired of talking to a brick wall. Go ahead, configure it, watch it work for a long time. Watch it fail a year from now and watch your butt get chewed out. You'll never find the problem in testing. It tends to occur only after a server has been operation for awhile and memory becomes good and fragmented. -----Original Message----- From: Sabo, Eric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 11:57 AM Posted To: Microsoft Exchange Conversation: Concurrent Users Subject: RE: Concurrent Users Ed, Thank you. I'm just trying to get feedback and learn. Sorry to get you so upset. I believe that you can go from an active/active configuration to an active/passive. So I don't see any harm in trying an active/active configuration for now. It might work for our environment. Also, I am going to configure a Front-end server. I respect your opinions on this list.

Definitely not my post. CONCURRENT=AT THE SAME TIME HTTP/POP3/IMAP = not a standard user. Very different profile, especially without a Front End Server. I'd definitely have to recommend that you find yourself another set of "experts" to help you. You are asking questions here that they should have answered for you, but then you are taking their advice on how to build your infrastructure. And to have not included a solution for the POP3/HTTP/IAMP4 users is very questionable..... And by the way, I believe that I can guarantee you that Compaq and Microsoft would not recommend the solution that you are saying that they are. Certain consultants might, but not as a general corporate recommendation. It was one of the Compaq leads that actually tended to break the story on Active/Active. -----Original Message----- From: Sabo, Eric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 11:43 AM Posted To: Microsoft Exchange Conversation: Concurrent Users Subject: RE: Concurrent Users So concurrent users are any user that connects to your exchange servers. This is a one to one ratio - not dependant upon the protocol they are using to attach to the server.

That's a horse of a different color, where are the Front End Servers???? -----Original Message----- From: Sabo, Eric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 11:22 AM Posted To: Microsoft Exchange Conversation: Concurrent Users Subject: Concurrent Users What does the term "concurrent users" mean? Does this mean a HTTP/POP3/IMAP4 user is consider the same as an MAPI user - Load wise? Can someone please explain what Microsoft means by concurrent users?
