What's the load on the existing servers? Without that information; it's pretty difficult to answer your question. You can easily put 4500 users on a single mailbox server in Exchange 2007/2010. (Of course, you'll want a failover box too.) Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com -----Original Message----- From: Ellis, John P. [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2010 6:45 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2007 & 2010 servers Currently on Exchange 2003 we have 4 servers, 3 active 1 passive all on hardware with 4500 users We have 2 servers in the DMZ for webmail and 2 internal servers for webmail, again all hardware based Trying to get my head around whats needed for Exchange 2007 & 2010 Ex2k7 with OCS 2 x Edge servers in DMZ for webmail ? Maybe 2 hub servers? Maybe 2 CAS servers? And say 3 email servers? What about 2010 with OCS/UMS Is there still 2 servers in the DMZ(Edge servers)? Do we still need Hub/CAS servers with 2010? And again 3 email servers with DAS or NAS? Or just lots of discs with a replication to a NAS box? Ive been hunting for a network diagram of an example layouts but not had much luck yet, anyone have any?
