Ex2003 IP address and move mailbox |
|
|
I currently have W2k 2 DC and a single Exchange2000 server. I am upgrading
with new hardware to exchange 2003.
Our Ex2000 has IP 10.4.10.1 and an offsite company routes email to that
address, so when I have the new Ex2003 server ready can I just move mailboxes
and then put that 10.4.10.1 IP address on the new server?
I have read some posts that you must leave the old server up and running for
a bit after moving mailbox, is this to allow all users to log on for the
first time or something? The old w2k server will have to have a new IP of
10.4.10.2, does that matter? We have 1300 users, some don't use their email
for months, what will happen to their email accounts once the w2k server is
removed?

You should leave the old server up for the Outlook clientes
automatically redirecting the mailbox server to the new mailbox home server.
Regarding IP adresses, DNS will take care of them |
