If you do it correctly, there shouldn't be any pitfalls. You will know if you've done it correctly by powering down the old server for a few days and waiting to see if there are any problems. Once you're satisfied that everyone has access to everything they need, delete the server from the site.
Neil -----Original Message----- From: Mark Bryant [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: 06 June 2002 23:23 Posted To: Swynk Exchange List Conversation: Exchange 5.5 first server shutdown Subject: Exchange 5.5 first server shutdown We are going to attempt to shut down the first server in our site, have another server already up. I have moved all mailboxes, replicated public folders and done everything that I found in the MS article Q152959. Can anyone tell me of potential pitfalls they have experienced? I am doing this to get ready to go to AD and Win2k Exchange. I have to shut down the first Exchange server because my predecessor was smart enough to make it a BDC. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks. I'm new to the group and will probably provide some laughs asking questions you have seen before. I'll try to limit them. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
