26 Chapter 2 • Installing Exchange Server 2007
Introduction
In this chapter, we will go through the requirements of Exchange 2007. We’ll look at what’s required
in terms of hardware and software, in addition to the Active Directory forest in which Exchange
Server 2007 is to be installed. We’ll then see, step by step, how you install Exchange 2007 Server into
a clean Active Directory forest (that is, a forest that doesn’t contain an Exchange organization or has
had the schema extended with the Exchange attributes). We’ll also take a brief look at the new
Finalizing Deployment and End-to-End Scenario pages. Finally, you’ll get an understanding of how
you add and remove Exchange 2007 server roles on an existing Exchange 2007 server as well as how
to remove an Exchange 2007 server from your organization.
This chapter does not cover transitions, coexistence, and other interoperability with Exchange
2000, 2003, and foreign messaging systems; it simply goes through the procedures of installing
Exchange Server 2007 in a clean Active Directory environment. It also does not cover complex
Exchange organizations distributed across multiple physical locations involving multiple Active
Directory forests. The intention of the chapter is to get you started with the product.
Coexistence and Exchange 2007 transitions are covered in Chapter 10.
Exchange 2007 Server Editions
and CAL Types
As is the case with previous versions of Exchange, Exchange Server 2007 exists in two different
editions: a Standard Edition and an Enterprise Edition.
Standard Edition
Like previous Standard Editions of Exchange, Exchange 2007 Standard Edition has been designed to
meet the messaging and collaboration requirements of small to medium-sized corporations and is
aimed at meeting specifi c messaging server roles, such as branch offi ces. The Standard Edition has:
■
Support for fi ve storage groups
■
Support for fi ve databases
■
No database storage limit
■
Local Continuous Replication (LCR)
NOTE
Now that we are accustomed to referring to the EDB databases as Mailbox and
Public Folder “Stores”, the Exchange Product group thought they should be changed
back to Mailbox and Public Folder “Databases”, as they were prior to and including
Exchange 5.5.
