Is this possible with Exchange 2007?
Hi all, We have one Exchange 2007 server with all roles installed (no UM). Due to business continunity, we need to access the mail in case of the outage. We do have DR site with domain controller. We want to build another exchange server in DR site. In case outage happens, users will be able to access the mail server in the DR site and send and receive emails. no need for replication. I remember in Exchange 2003, we change the exchange attributes and users will be able to connect to exchange server in DR site. Is there a way to do this in Exchange 2007? Thank you.

It sounds like what you want is: move-mailbox -configurationonly[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

How you have configured DR site for mailbox sevrer, I mean copy of source site to DR site ? you can use SCR available in exchage 2007 SP1/2/3 for DR site and can use (move-mailbox -configurationonly) as suggested by mjolnier when need to shift to DR site !Anil

I think what they're after would best be described as a "hot dialtone" server. [string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

Thank you. Do you know whether we can test one storage group first with move-mailbox -configurationonly? What's the command for that?

You can't test a storage group with move-mailbox, but you can make the move dependent on testing with get-storagegroup. if (get-storagegroup <server>\<storagegroup>){ move-mailbox <mailboxname> -configurationonly -targetdatabase <targetdatabase> You may want to test the database instead: if ((get-mailboxdatabase <server\storagegroup\database> -status).mounted){ move-mailbox....... else { <whatever you want to do if the db isn't mounted> }[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "
