I want to move my one and only windows 2003/exchange 2003 server from an old
server to a new server, different physical machines.
What are my best options? All the mailbox and public folders will be
migrated in a single go, over a week-end. The servers can be online or
offline, it does not matter.
please identify good paper I can read prior the upgrade. I would like to
find a good procedure for the upgrade.

I would like to concerve the messages unicity in the data stores and have a
different server name on the new server...

Here you go:

1. Installl Exchange 2003 on new server, simply follow the Exchange
Deployment Tool to install additional Exchange 2003 Server.

2. Apply latest Service Packs to OS and Exchange.

3. Use ADUC to Move Mailboxes, you can highlight as many users as you like
and then select Exchange Task and Move Mailbox. Suggest doing this after
hours. Since you are moving Mailboxes this will preverve Single Instance
Storage (SIS).

4. Follow the link provided to remove your First Exchange 2003 Server,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931/

5. Update your Firewall SMTP Rules to insure all outbound/inbound SMTP
points to internal IP of your new Exchange Server.

Post back if you have questions.
