Exchange Server

Hello Guys,

I need some help in this scenario

Scenario:
I have a Windows 2000 forest with 3 domains and one Exchange 2000
organization.

Requirement:
I need to move all objects (including mailboxes) of this forest to another
prestine Windows 2003 forest. This forest will have your own exchange
organization based on exchange 2003.

Question:
I now that I will need to use some tools like ADMT (for account migration),
Interorg (for public folders questions), Exchange Migration Wizard (to move
mailboxes) and MIIS 2003 for GAL Synchronization.
My doubt is: How Exchange handling Move Mailboxes?
I need to now this because the coexistence between this two enviroments is
required while I have time to move all mailboxes. I must to have de same SMTP
address space in the two exchange organizations and I need to guarantee that
e-mails send to all users for internal and external domains arrive in the
correct mailbox independent of your location (old organization or new
organiztion).

Somebody can indicate me some whitepaper about this?

Any help is appreciated

Best Regards

MIIS 2003 for GAL Synchronization is not a requirement. ADC can be used in
this situation in interorg mode.
For more information check out the migration docs

Thanks for your post Al Mulnick

I'm see the microsoft documentation and Microsoft recomends MIIS 2003 for
sysncronization between Exchange 2000\2003 organizations and ADC in interorg
between Exchange5.5 to Exchange 2000\2003.

But my bigger doubt is about how Exchange handling move mailboxes after I
move mailboxes between forest.

For example when someone in internet send a mail message to one user that
was moved to the new exchange...exchange will return NDR to internet user or
try delivery this message to the other exchange organization before?

Thanks a lot

OK Al Mulnick

I find in Microsoft Knowledge Base an article that explain the procedure
that you spoke.

Article KB321721

Now I will go ahed and test this procedure and MIIS2003 in a test enviroment.

When I will have a reply I post on the forum.

Thanks a lot.

Doh! MIIS is the tool to use, sorry about that.
As for routing, you'll need to have two new internal only domain names in
use. For example, one forest would be somedomain.com and the other would be
otherdomain.com. You'd configure these names as a secondary SMTP address
via the policies. For all contacts that get created by the MIIS MA's, you'd
want the primary/target delivery address of the contact to be the internally
used destination SMTP address. You may want to create a SMTP connector
between them as well.

I *thought* there was some docs at http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/library
regarding multi-forest deployments. That would be applicable here, except
that you're planning to migrate vs stay that way.

Is that more helpful?
