Subject: RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?
Unless you use Windows 2000 Advanced Server with the /3GB switch, the store process
will not able to allocate more than 1 GB of RAM. And since there is no upgrade
between Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2000 Advanced Server without a complete
re-install, if you intend to ever benefit from more than 1.5GB of physical RAM in your
Exchange server, you should start with Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
If you start as Windows 2000 Server, you will be limited to the number of concurrent
connections you will reasonably want to handle. Where the cut-off should be is
difficult to say because it would be based upon how long you intend to keep that
server in production, the load created by your users, and your potential upgrade path.
I suppose if you were reasonably certain that the server would never grow larger than
100 users and you anticipated a 3 year life expectancy, you'd be safe using Windows
2000 Server. So it's a viable alternative for small sites.

RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?
The MS Exchange 2000 Internals: Quick Tuning Guide (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtech nol/exchange/exchange2000/maintain/optimize/exchtune.asp) says to use the /3GB switch on servers with 1GB of RAM (or more). Pierre Bijaoui says the same thing in his Scaling MS Exchange 2000 book. Seems that the conclusion from that is to run Advanced Server on any Exchange box with RAM = 1GB. -Original Message- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 6:22 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?

RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?
This is where I heard it: http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/E2KSP2_Cluster.asp Memory Limitations Exchange 2000 Server works well with the /3GB switch. Note Exchange 2000 Server requires that the /3GB switch be used in conjunction with Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 2000 Datacenter Server on hardware with more that 1 GB of physical RAM installed. For more information, see the /3GB and the Additional Resources sections of this document. Exchange 2000 Server does not support instancing (the ability to run multiple instances of an application as separate processes on the same computer) or Physical Address Extension (PAE), which limits Exchange 2000 Server to about 3 GB of usable memory. Installing more than 3 GB of physical memory on a computer running only Exchange 2000 Server is not recommended because the additional memory does not result in a measurable improvement of server performance. However, if you are running other memory intensive applications in conjunction with Exchange 2000, such as Microsoft SQL Server, then increasing the physical memory size beyond 3 GB can provide greater server performance -Original Message- From: Andrey Fyodorov Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 9:22 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?

Standard will do it, but if you have a lot of RAM in the box, Advanced Server plays more nicely with E2K (both standard enterprise). - Original Message - From: Orin Rehorst [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 6:24 PM Subject: FW: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?

RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?
I'm not gonna disagree with you either, but I'm out of the loop on that topic. Have you got references, or are you hearing internal company whisperings? I've seen a lot of misunderstanding of the (poorly written) documentation of this switch. Are you talking about a Win2k Advanced Server machine with 2gb, or regular W2k server? My lab servers are old Compaq 1600s that would die of shock if they ever found out a machine could have 2gb RAM, so I can't test it... -Original Message- From: Missy Koslosky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 5:37 PM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced? Subject: Re: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced? Not to disagree with you Tom (not I!), but there's been a lot of talk lately about the /3GB switch helping performance, even on systems with 2GB of RAM. So A/S might be good, but, as you said, probably isn't necessary.

RE: Exchange 2000 Ent require Win2K Server Advanced?
Unless you use Windows 2000 Advanced Server with the /3GB switch, the store process will not able to allocate more than 1 GB of RAM. And since there is no upgrade between Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2000 Advanced Server without a complete re-install, if you intend to ever benefit from more than 1.5GB of physical RAM in your Exchange server, you should start with Windows 2000 Advanced Server. If you start as Windows 2000 Server, you will be limited to the number of concurrent connections you will reasonably want to handle. Where the cut-off should be is difficult to say because it would be based upon how long you intend to keep that server in production, the load created by your users, and your potential upgrade path. I suppose if you were reasonably certain that the server would never grow larger than 100 users and you anticipated a 3 year life expectancy, you'd be safe using Windows 2000 Server. So it's a viable alternative for small sites.
