Hi, I'm currently working on the deployment of a large Exchange 2010 infrastructure (30,000 mailboxes) and I will have to keep the public folders enabled. Even though the Exchange Calculator sheet has been very useful with every other roles, I'm having a hard time finding informations about sizing for the public folders' servers requirements and storage design... Do you know any document or any other kind of ressource that could help? Thanks

Thanks Hi, try to check this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996658%28EXCHG.65%29.aspx I have experiences with environment about 25000 mailboxes on Exchange 2007 and we deployed 2 servers for Public Folders only.

thanks, but I had already seen this link. it's interesting but not that much helpful regarding the informations I'm looking for, especially concerning storage design (IOPS and such things)

Haven't seen anything around sizing PF's, if you find anything around it please post the link etc in the thread Jonas Andersson | Microsoft Community Contributor Award 2011 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | Blog: http://www.testlabs.se/blog | Follow me on twitter: jonand82
