moving Exchange 2007 SP1 to an another AD site/subnet
Hi, What would happen if you move Exchange 2007 SP1 MB, HT and CAS from site A to site B and power it on? :-) Has anyone tried that? Any articles or docs you can recommend? Many thanks. Pawel

If you just drop it in the services probably won't all start. Give it a new IP address to suit the site, a reboot and you're probably all good to go. Make sure that the HT and CAS settings are appropriate for where you've put the box. Think about CAS proxying/redirection - I.e. is this box now Internet facing or was it before and it's not now? What about the HT. Is the box now going to send direct to the Internet or did it and it's now only going to go through something else. It's all entirely common sense stuff that you need to sit down and walk yourself through. "pawelek_maly" wrote in message news:926df6f5-0c88-45a2-8f09-dfb77e620f2d...

I would probably change an ip address ;-) Thanks for reminding. So you say that HT&MB&CAS server would get aware of a new site [using SRV records?] and would start routing emails [HT] using AD replication? HT routes emails to another HT server and then to a smart host. I'm aware of changes in regards to CAS server: dns, firewall, ... Thank you. Pawel

Hi, Exchange 2007 is based on AD sites and services, so it registers the site it is in and use the domain controllers in that site to authenticate and so on. So like Mark writes it should work without any problems as long as you are aware on internet facing sites and so on, but it sound like you have that covered :) /MartinExchange is a passion not just a collaboration software.
