MSX2000+SP3, Native mode 1 ORG Native W2K-AD We currently operate with 1 MSX2000 we are buying two new servers and we want to discard the current one (called serverA), the MSX2000 servers are member servers (no DNS, no GC) Server A is the first and unique MSX2000 in the Org.
have you ever done something similar to this? for sure tape backups will be prepared. 1) Wait for the two new servers (B & C), load Windows2000+ all necessary patches 2) ADD server *B* to AD, install Exchange2000, prepare server *C* offline and name it *A* 2) Move the maiboxes from *A* to server *B* 3) Disconnect *A* from the domain (remove that computername from the AD, disconnect lan cable) 4) ADD *A* to the Active Directory, install exchange2000 5) Move the mailboxes back from server *B* to new *A* -special interest in point 5 is B going to recognize the new A and viceversa? note: we are doing the move mailbox because there is a corruption (checksum error) on the currentdatabase, this checksum error is not causing any problem to the users but the backup does not finish. we are buying two new servers because we are going to install -later- the Legato co-standby solution.
