We're currently on a Server 2003 domain/forest with Exchange 2007 SP1. I understand that we need to prepare our domain/forest for Server 2008 with adprep and forestprep. What I would like to know is that what major changes do I need to perform on Exchange 2007? As long as Exchange can talk to the Schema/Global Catalog/DC, I think everything should be fine. Any thoughts? Thanks. -Jose

I have been reading that Server 2008 R2 does not play nice with Exchange 2007 SP2. Can you confirm this? We might be virtualizing Server 2008 R2 on a VMWare ESXi environment. What do you think? What has been the issue that you found out with upgrading to Exchange 2010(which we will not do yet). Thank you sir for your response.

Any preferred environment for virtualizing Server 2008 R2? VMWare ESXi? VMWare ESX? Thanks.
