I have an existing exchange 2000 server that its hasrdware is failing so i want to setup a new exchange 2000 server and move all the mailboxes over to the new one. How can i do this with little or no downtime?
This will give you the basic steps just ignore the Exchange 2003 part, http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Migrating-Exchange2000-Exchange-2003-Hardware.html. You need to install the Exchange 2000 Server into your existing org then move mailboxes and finally follow http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307917. I would turn off the old Exchange Server for about 24 hours before removing to insure everything has replicated properly. -- John Oliver, Jr MCSE, MCT, CCNA Exchange MVP 2008 Microsoft Certified Partner "john loone" wrote in message news:eZ2sSZBaIHA.4808@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >I have an existing exchange 2000 server that its hasrdware is failing so i >want to setup a new exchange 2000 server and move all the mailboxes over to >the new one.
