Re: Frontendservers and Upgrade to Exchange2003
Hi Valleyriver,
Unfortunately not:
822942 Considerations when you upgrade to Exchange Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;822942
"For front-end and back-end servers that are in the same administrative
group, you must upgrade the front-end servers to Exchange 2003 before you
upgrade the back-end server to Exchange 2003 (or install Exchange 2003 on
the back-end server)."

What about to demote the FE for a while and then do the E2k3
installation.

Re: Frontendservers and Upgrade to Exchange2003
Hi,
That would probably work. I don't think that the exchange server checks for
installed versions when configuring them as front-end servers. If that fails
you will however have to upgrade the existing front-end servers to exchange
2003 as well.

Hi,
What is the purpose of the check on the versions of the FE server?

Re: Frontendservers and Upgrade to Exchange2003
Hi,
If you were to upgrade a backend server before the front-end server you
would break OWA because of the controls expected by the backend server but
not delivered (because they are not installed) from the front-end server.
When you upgrade the front-end server first it installs the controls in a
new directory thus allowing the server to continue to function with the non
upgraded back-end server.
