We need to migrate an Exchnage 2003 cluster to Exchnage 2007 cluster. The new cluster was build on a new hardware. Some question: On exchnage 2003 cluster I have 2 active node one with a specific storage group. In Exchange 2007 in Single Copy Cluster have 1 Active node and 1 Passive node. Its only te active node who manage the Storage group? On Exchnage 2007 I make a cluster on only the Mailbox Role. For the high availability we need other two server with other role (CAS,HUB,Transport) ? Thanks and sory form my bad english. Lorenzo Soncini

You could consider 2 x CAS servers and 2 x HT servers, or you can implement 2 x combined CAS/HT servers. The HT role automatically load balances, but for the CAS role you'll need to implement software or hardware load balancing. > Thanks and sory form my bad english. > Lorenzo Soncini -- Neil Hobson Exchange MVP http://www.msexchange.org/Neil_Hobson/ http://www.msexchangeblog.com
Thanks... I can use the Enteprise version of Exchange 2007 for the cluster and the standard version for the Hub and transport e Client Access Role ?
