9 What Is an Unattended Installation? An installation of Exchange 2003 that proceeds and completes without any prompting from a user Unattended installation install Exchange Server 2003 Setup CD plus.ini file Use it when you: Install additional Exchange 2003 computers Install Exchange 2003 System Management Tools Run DomainPrep Install additional Exchange 2003 computers Install Exchange 2003 System Management Tools Run DomainPrep

10 How to Perform an Unattended Installation of Exchange Server 2003 Exchange is installed on designated computers 3 3.ini Run Setup using the.ini file 2 2 Create initialization file 1 1.ini Administrator Install

11 How to Verify That Installation of Exchange Server 2003 Was Successful Test Active Directory Users and Computers Send a test message Test Exchange System Manager Use these utilities to troubleshoot, if required: Services MMC Event Viewer and the setup log file Windows Explorer 1 1 Administrator Exchange Server 2003 2 2 3 3 4 4

12 Lesson: Installing Exchange Server 2003 in a Clustered Environment Multimedia: How Exchange Server 2003 Uses Windows Clustering Hardware Requirements Checklist for an Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Types of Exchange 2003 Cluster Configurations Recommended Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Configuration Considerations for Using Clusters How Failover Occurs on an Active/Active Cluster vs. an Active/Passive Cluster Permissions Required to Install and Configure an Exchange Virtual Server Demonstration: How to Install Exchange Server 2003 in a Clustered Environment

13 Multimedia: How Exchange Server 2003 Uses Windows Clustering This presentation shows how Exchange Server 2003 can use Windows Clustering to improve fault tolerance for your Exchange hardware

14 Hardware Requirements Checklist for an Exchange Server 2003 Cluster To use a cluster, you must have: Two or more nodes Drives in each node from which operating system starts A separate mass-storage controller for shared disk A shared disk Two network adapters in each node Two or more nodes Drives in each node from which operating system starts A separate mass-storage controller for shared disk A shared disk Two network adapters in each node Node 2 Node 1 Local Disk Shared Disk Local Disk C: Disk Network Adapter

15 Types of Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Configurations Active/Active Configuration EVS Active/Passive Configuration EVS

16 Active/passive configurations: Scale as well as stand-alone Exchange servers Are more reliable Have better failover performance Will support clusters with up to eight nodes Scale as well as stand-alone Exchange servers Are more reliable Have better failover performance Will support clusters with up to eight nodes Recommended Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Configuration Active/Passive Configuration EVS

17 Considerations for Using Clusters In active/passive clusters, Exchange Virtual Servers must equal one less than the number of nodes Exchange 2003 is limited to four storage groups per server, which can create problems with the active/active configuration For both cluster types, proactively monitor virtual memory performance In active/passive clusters, Exchange Virtual Servers must equal one less than the number of nodes Exchange 2003 is limited to four storage groups per server, which can create problems with the active/active configuration For both cluster types, proactively monitor virtual memory performance

18 Resource Group EVS Disk Resource System Attendant IP Address Network Name Preference List Node B Preference List Node B How Failover Occurs on an Active/Active Cluster vs. an Active/Passive Cluster Public Network Private Network Node A Node B EVS Client EVS When one of the nodes fails Active/active configuration The surviving node takes over the failed EVS and continues to service client computers When the node is restored to service, the EVS is failed back Active/passive configuration One or more nodes of the Exchange server cluster host active EVSs while one or more nodes remain passive. The cluster service checks the preference list and moves the failed EVS to the passive node on the list. The passive node starts servicing client computers When the node is restored to service, the EVS is failed back Resource Group EVS Disk Resource System Attendant IP Address Network Name Public Network Private Network Node A Node B EVS Client EVS When one of the nodes fails Active/active configuration The surviving node takes over the failed EVS and continues to service client computers When the node is restored to service, the EVS is failed back

19 Permissions Required to Install and Configure an Exchange Virtual Server You mustTo do this Be a member of the local administrators group on each node Install Exchange Have Exchange Full Administrator permissions at the organizational level Create the first Exchange Virtual Server in the organization Have Exchange Full Administrator permissions at the administrative group level for the administrative group that contains the Exchange Virtual Server Create additional Exchange Virtual Servers, or modify or delete an Exchange Virtual Server in an administrative group Permissions
