Hello,
I think it has gotten more complicated than 5.5, especially for different hardware. If you're going by the DR doc, light candles, make sacrifices, etc... that you'll be able to restore the System State to your different hardware. They have updated the E2K DR doc from the original one. The new version of the E2K Disaster Recovery Doc (looks like released in March of this year) gives more warning of this than the earlier August 2000 DR doc, and some tips about using Safe mode, etc.... The DR Mailbox Recovery Doc http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/MailboxRecovery.doc goes into more about recovering a server without restoring the System State, and what attributes you may need to modify. It does not appear to have been updated since the original August 2000 release.

You just need the same O/S and Exchange level (version, sp etc). The only thing that might go wrong in your case is that the previous system had a multiprocessor HAL, and the new one will be single proc HAL. Obviously, you'll need the same server name, site name etc. etc. See http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/administration/55/backuprestore.a sp Serdar Soysal -----Original Message----- From: Jan Novák [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2002 12:32 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: restore exchange to different hardware Importance: High Hello, Last night our server crashed.
