A total loss of Site A's Exchange server environment.

You’re talking site resiliency, then say just an Exchange server going down which could be translated to high availability. Which is it? What’s your scenario and goal? From: John Bowles [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 11 January 2010 18:57 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2010 Site Resilency Clarification All- I'm looking at deploying E2K10 at a customer site. What I'm trying to get my head around is site resiliency within E2K10. I understand DAG's and you can have up to 16 copies of each DB etc... What I'm trying to figure out is, if Site A goes down how does Site B pick up within Exchange? I understand the the DB's will move to Site B.. If I have a secondary MX record pointing to Site B all mail should flow in and out correct? And if Auto Discovery is setup properly that will point all Outlook clients to the appropriate Exchange server right? Do I have this concept right? Or am I missing some points? (Note* When I say site down, i'm speaking Exchange server going down.. not total catastrophe) Thank you, John Bowles
