How to Assign a Server to a Routing Group (Q266725)
Summary
This article describes two methods to assign a server to a routing group. The first method explains how to assign the server during the installation of Microsoft Exchange 2000 and the second method explains how to assign the server after the installation process is finished.
More Information
How to Assign a Server to a Routing Group During Installation
A server can be assigned to a routing group during the installation phase only if the routing group already exists. By default, only one administrative group, the First Administrative Group, exists. Within this group, one routing group is available, the First Routing Group. During installation, you can only install the server in the default routing group for the default administrative group. To create new routing groups, you must create them in an administrative group using Exchange System Manager after the Exchange 2000 Server is installed. You can choose your routing group from a list. However, you can only choose routing groups that are available within the administrative group. Therefore, during the installation, you must choose the administrative group before you choose the routing group. Routing groups are created within administrative groups. You can create several administrative groups each with multiple routing groups. For additional information about administrative and routing groups, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q231731 XADM: Administrative Groups and Routing Groups

How to Assign a Server to a Routing Group After Installation

After a server is installed in a routing group, you can reassign it to a different routing group using a drag-and-drop operation in Exchange System Manager. Note The source routing group and the destination routing group to which the server is moved should belong to the same administrative group. To assign a server to a routing group, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Click Start , point to Programs , point to Microsoft Exchange , and then click System Manager . In the left pane of Exchange System Manager, expand the Administrative Groups container so that all administrative groups within the container are visible. Expand the container for the administrative group where the server was assigned during the installation phase. Expand the Routing Groups container to see all routing groups within the administrative group. Expand the container for the routing group (source RG) where the server was assigned during the installation phase. Expand the Members container for the routing group (source RG) that you expanded in step four. The stubs should be displayed for all the servers assigned to this routing group. Expand the container for the routing group (destination RG) where the server needs to be reassigned. Note The routing group needs to be a member of the same administrative group that you expanded in step three. 8. 9. Expand the Members container for the routing group (destination RG) that you expanded in step seven. The stubs should be displayed for all the servers assigned to this routing group. Select a server stub from the Members container of the source RG that you expanded in step six and drag it to the Members container of destination RG that you expanded in step eight.

? Exchange 2000 Server supports multiple databases and storage groups on the same server.
This support allows you to split a single logical database into multiple physical databases. You
Page 4 of 66
can back up and restore these smaller physical databases much faster than larger databases. In addition, you can help improve overall system reliability by using multiple physical databases because you can restore an individual database from a backup while other databases continue to service client requests.
How to Configure a Routing Group Connector (Q267992)
Summary
The Routing Group connector is used to connect two routing groups. This article describes how to configure a Routing Group connector in Exchange 2000 Server.
More Information
To create a Routing Group connector, you need more than one routing group. The routing groups to be connected can be members of the same administrative group or of different administrative groups. To create a Routing Group connector, you must be a member of the Domain Controllers and Domain Administrators groups in your Exchange organization. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange , and then click System Manager . In the left pane of Exchange System Manager, expand the administrative group that you want, and then expand the Routing Groups container. Click the routing group for which the connector is to be created. In the right pane of Exchange System Manager, right-click Connectors, point to New , and then click Routing Group Connector . Type a name for the connector in the Name box on the General tab. In the Connects this Routing Group with list, click the destination routing group to connect to. On the General tab, click the Add button to select the local bridgehead servers that can send mail over this connector. In the Add Bridgehead box, click the SMTP virtual server instance that will manage the outgoing messages. Click OK . Note The choices for the local bridgehead depend on the number of member servers in the source routing group. You can add more than one local bridgehead server for load balancing purposes. 9. 10. On the Remote Bridgeheads tab, click Add to select a remote bridgehead server in the destination routing group. In the Add Bridgehead box, click the SMTP virtual server (remote bridgehead) that will receive the incoming messages, and then click OK . Note The choices for the remote bridgehead depend on the number of member servers in the destination routing group. 11. In the Properties box, click OK to accept the connector setup. The Routing Group connector created in the preceding steps is a one-way connector from the source routing group to the destination routing group. You receive the following message: Do you want to create the Routing Group connector in the remote routing group? If you click Yes , a Routing Group connector is created in the other direction. If you click No , you must manually create the connector in the other direction. In Exchange 2000, you can set up multiple one-way or two-way Routing Group connectors between the same routing groups. This is different than how site connector setup works in Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 and earlier. If you already have one two-way Routing Group connector and are in the process of creating a second two-way Routing Group connector between the same two routing groups, the message mentioned in step 11 does not appear. This behavior is by design, as there is already a path back
12.
Page 5 of 66
from the other connector in the form of the first two-way Routing Group connector that you already created. Consequently, you must remember to manually create the connector in the other direction, if you want one.
Additional Configuration on a Routing Group Connector

In addition to the basic connector setup, you may want to add special restrictions and options concerning delivery and content for the connector. Delivery Restrictions During the setup of a Routing Group connector or when you access the properties for a Routing Group connector, the Delivery Restrictions tab allows you to specify who is allowed access to this connector. By default, the connector accepts messages from everyone. To access the properties of the Routing Group connector that you set up, right-click the connector, and then click Properties .
? On the Delivery Restrictions tab, the Accept messages from everyone setting is the
default. You can choose to reject messages from everyone.

? For very specific restrictions on the use of the connector by specific individuals, you can select
specific individuals from whom the connector will accept or reject messages. In the Accept Messages From and Reject Messages From lists, you can specify users. Click Add for these sections, and from the Select Recipient box, select the specific individuals from the directory. Content Restrictions Use the Content Restrictions tab to specify whether the connector restricts messages based on their priority: High, Normal, and Low. By default, a connector allows all message priorities. To access the properties of the Routing Group connector that you set up, right-click the connector, and then click Properties .
? On the Content Restrictions tab, all of the priorities are checked by default. You can click to
clear any of the priorities, for example, High, Low, or High and Low. Clearing a check box causes messages with those priorities to not be accepted by the connector. Delivery Options The Delivery Options tab is a new addition to the Routing Group connector and provides two scheduling features: scheduling the times when the connector is available, and scheduling the time when the connector is available for messages larger than a particular, specified size. To access the properties of the Routing Group connector that you set up, right-click the connector, and then click Properties .
? On the Delivery Options tab, the connection time is set to Always Run by default. You can
change this setting by choosing among the options provided in the list. To create your own custom schedule, click Customize .
? By default, the Use different delivery times for oversize messages check box is clear. If
you click to select this check box, you can set the size that defines an oversized message (default value: 2000 KB). You can then set a separate schedule for the oversized messages by using the separate list options available. To define a custom schedule, click Customize .

How to Enable Message Filtering (Turf List) The "turf list" is set on the Filtering tab of the Message Delivery Properties dialog box. You can gain access to this dialog box by using Global Settings in Exchange System Manager. When turf list filtering is enabled on an SMTP virtual server, e-mail received from anyone on the turf list is filtered out. For example, if an SMTP virtual server is connected to the Internet, you can filter e-mail from one or more outside users who are trying to gain access to the organization by using a particular IP address. If, however, a different IP address is configured on the same virtual server (for example, for internal users who connect to the Internet), you may need to enable filtering for connections on this IP address.

How to Enable or Disable Message Filtering on a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Virtual Server (Q261087)
Summary
This article describes how to enable or disable message filtering on a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) virtual server.
More Information
When you enable message filtering on an SMTP virtual server, messages received from people on the message filter list are not accepted. For example, if you have an SMTP virtual server that is connected to the Internet, you can filter messages from Internet users who attempt to send messages to your organization through a particular Internet Protocol (IP) address. However, on the same virtual server, you may want to configure a different IP address for people in your organization to use to connect to the Internet. For those people, you do not want to enable message filtering. The message filter list is a global setting that is defined for the entire organization, but message filtering is enabled on an SMTP virtual server for a particular IP address. Different groups of people can log on to an Exchange Server computer with different IP address and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port combinations. You can decide which combinations, and therefore which people in your organization, will have their messages filtered. Note Before you can enable message filtering on an SMTP virtual server, you must create a message filter list. For additional information about how to create a message filter list, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q258696 XADM: How to Modify Global Settings in Exchange System Manager

How to Modify Recipient Settings in Exchange System Manager (Q263845)
Summary
This article describes how to modify recipient settings in Exchange System Manager. The following most common administrative tasks are discussed:
? Adding e-mail addresses to a recipient policy ? Creating an offline address list
More Information
Adding E-Mail Addresses to a Recipient Policy
Proxy addresses identify recipients to the gateways and connectors that connect Exchange 2000 Server with other messaging systems, such as Lotus cc:Mail and Novell GroupWise. These e-mail addresses define the valid formats that are used for addressing inbound e-mail messages to the Exchange system. Recipient policies automatically generate e-mail addresses for the recipients that are associated with a particular policy. You can add a new e-mail address to an existing recipient policy. You can also create multiple email addresses of the same address type. This is helpful for organizations that have multiple divisions, that have branch offices in different regions or countries, or that use different e-mail systems. To add an e-mail address to a recipient policy: 1. 2. Click Start , point to Programs , point to Microsoft Exchange , and then click System Manager . Expand the Recipients branch in the left pane, click Recipient Policies, right-click the Default Policy object or another object associated with a different recipient policy in the right pane, and then click Properties . Note To expand a branch, double-click the branch or click the plus sign (+) to the left of the branch. 3. 4. 5. Click the E-Mail Addresses tab. Click New , select the address type that you want, and then click OK . Type the appropriate information for the address type you selected, and then click OK . If you selected the SMTP address type, and you want the Exchange organization to be responsible for delivering all e-mail messages to this address, verify that the This Exchange Organization is responsible for all mail delivery to this address check box is selected before you click OK . To maintain information about the recipient policy that you are modifying, click the Details tab, and then under Administrative note , type some information about the e-mail address that you added. Click the E-Mail Addresses tab, and then click to select the check box next to the e-mail address that you added. If the e-mail address that you added is the same type of address as an existing e-mail address, and you want the new address to be the primary address, select the new address, and then click Set as Primary . Note that the primary address is the address that appears in the From field when a mailbox-enabled user sends a message. Click OK . When you do so, you may be asked if you want to update all the corresponding recipient e-mail addresses to match the changes that you made. If you click Yes , the changes made to the recipient policy are applied to the recipients associated with the policy. If you set the new e-mail address as the primary address, the other e-mail addresses of that type are demoted to secondary addresses.

If a message is displayed that indicates that the offline address list will not be available immediately, click Next . Verify that the information displayed is correct, and then click Finish .
How to Modify the Circular Logging Setting (Q258470)
Summary
This article describes how to modify the circular logging setting on a Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server computer. The following topics are discussed:
? Description of circular logging ? Enabling or disabling circular logging
More Information
Description of Circular Logging
In the standard transaction logging used by Exchange 2000 Server, each database transaction in a storage group is written to a log file and then to the database. When a log file reaches a certain size, it is renamed and a new log file is created. Over time, this results in a set of a log files. If there is a crash, you can recover the transactions by replaying the data from these log files into the database. Circular logging overwrites and reuses the first log file after the data it contains has been written to the database. In Exchange 2000 Server, circular logging is disabled by default. By enabling it, you reduce drive storage space requirements, but without complete transaction log files, you cannot recover anything more recent than the last full backup. Therefore, in a normal production environment, circular logging is not recommended.
How to Enable or Disable Circular Logging

Exchange 2000 Server supports multiple databases and storage groups on the same server. You can create up to four storage groups on a server and each storage group can contain up to five databases, for a maximum of 20 databases on a single server. Each storage group is controlled by a separate instance of the Extensible Storage Engine (ESE). Therefore, each storage group shares the same set of log files. As a result, circular logging is enabled or disabled for a particular storage
Page 46 of 66
group, not for a particular database. To enable or disable circular logging: 1. 2. Click Start , point to Programs , point to Microsoft Exchange , and then click System Manager . If the Administrative Groups branch exists in the left pane, expand it, expand the appropriate administrative group's branch, expand the Servers branch, and then expand the appropriate server's branch. If the Administrative Groups branch does not exist, expand the Servers branch in the left pane, and then expand the appropriate server's branch. To expand a branch, double-click the branch or click the plus sign (+) to the left of the branch. Right-click the storage group you want, and then click Properties . To enable circular logging, click to select the Enable circular logging check box, and then click OK . When you are prompted to continue, click Yes . To disable circular logging, click to clear the Enable circular logging check box, and then click OK . 5. Restart the information store. To do so: a. b. Click Start, point to Programs , point to Administrative Tools , and then click Services . Click Microsoft Exchange Information Store in the right pane, and then on the Action menu, click Restart . If a dialog box appears stating that additional services will be restarted, click Yes .
3. 4.
Note The information store must be restarted because when it starts, it reads configuration information from Microsoft Windows 2000 Active Directory. The Active Directory attribute associated with the circular logging setting is called MSExchESEParamCircularLog . When circular logging is enabled, this attribute is set to 1. When circular logging is disabled, it is set to 0.

How to Set Up Exchange 2000 Server on a Windows Cluster (Q263272)
Summary
This article describes how to install Exchange 2000 Server on a Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
Page 53 of 66
cluster. This article assumes that the clustered server has two nodes and is a member server in a Windows 2000 domain, and that the cluster is configured for active/active clustering. Note This article does not cover setting up Exchange 2000 on a Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server cluster. Exchange 2000 Server is not supported on Windows 2000 Datacenter Server until Exchange 2000 Server Service Pack 1 or later.
More Information
System Requirements
? A cluster that is certified by Microsoft for Windows 2000. See the Microsoft Hardware
Compatibility List (HCL) from the following Microsoft Web site for a list of certified clusters: http://www.microsoft.com/hcl/default.asp
? Sufficient resources (memory, shared storage, network bandwidth) on each node to support
the entire Exchange 2000 server if one node stops working. Software Requirements
? Windows 2000 Server or Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server ? Exchange 2000 Server or Enterprise Server
Pre-Installation Information
? By default, Microsoft Internet Information Service (IIS) version 5.0 is installed with Windows
2000 Server. However, Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) is not installed with IIS by default. NNTP is a required component for Exchange 2000. Verify that both NNTP and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) have been installed on each node of the cluster.
? A Domain Name System (DNS) server must be available for the domain. ? Do not install Exchange 2000 on both nodes at the same time. ? You must install Exchange 2000 using the same account with which you installed the cluster
service. In the rest of this article, this account is referred to as the "installation account." The account must be a member of the Domain Admins security group, as well as a member of the Built-in/Administrators group for each node in the cluster.
? The cluster service account must be a member of the Built-in/Administrators group on each
node. The cluster service account must also be granted "Exchange Full Administrator" privileges in the Exchange organization if this is not the first Exchange 2000 server in the organization.
? To complete the ForestPrep phase of Exchange 2000 setup, the installation account must be a
member of the following Windows 2000 security groups: Domain Admins, Schema Admins, and Enterprise Admins.
? For consistency, install Exchange 2000 on the same drive and folder on each computer and
shared storage device in the cluster. The default installation folder (for binary files, which are not shared) is the local system drive. For the purpose of this article, Exchange 2000 binary files are installed to C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr, and the Exchange databases (Mdbdata) are installed to S:\Exchsrvr\Mdbdata. Note Earlier versions of Exchange Server 5.5 required that the Exchange Server binary files be installed on a shared disk. This is no longer a requirement for Exchange 2000, and the binary files are installed to a local drive, such as C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr, by default.
? Before you install Exchange 2000, be sure that the folder in which you will install all of the
Exchange shared data (that is, the Exchange information store or the Mdbdata folder) on the Physical Disk resource is empty.
? You must install the same build of Exchange 2000 components on all nodes. In other words, do
Page 54 of 66
not install a prereleased or beta version of Exchange 2000 on one node, and the released version of Exchange 2000 on the other node.
? At a minimum, you must install Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration and Microsoft
Exchange System Management Tools on both nodes. For additional information about installing Exchange 2000 on a non-clustered server, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q262068 XADM: How to Set Up Exchange 2000
How to Set Up Exchange 2000 on a Member Server

To install Exchange 2000 on a cluster, you need to perform the following four main steps:
? Prepare the forest. ? Prepare the domain. ? Install Exchange 2000 on each node. ? Configure the Exchange 2000 resources in Cluster Administrator (Exchange 2000 virtual
servers). Prepare the Forest Before you can install Exchange 2000 anywhere, you must extend the Windows 2000 Active Directory schema and create certain essential security groups. To do this, you must run ForestPrep. To run the forestprep command in a forest that does not contain earlier versions of Exchange Server (for example, Exchange Server 5.5): 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Insert the Exchange 2000 CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. Click Start , and then click Run . In the Open box, type CD_drive_letter \setup\i386\setup /forestprep , where CD_drive_letter is the letter of your CD-ROM drive. In the Welcome dialog box, click Next. In the End User License Agreement (EULA) dialog box, read the EULA, and if you agree to the terms, click I agree, and then click Next . In the Product Identification dialog box, type the 25-digit CD key on the back of the product CD-ROM, and then click Next. In the Component Selection dialog box, verify that the action next to Exchange 2000 Server is ForestPrep , and then click Next. In the Installation Type dialog box, click Create an Exchange 2000 Organization . In the Organization Name dialog box, type the name of your new organization. Remember that after you type a name for your Exchange 2000 organization, you cannot change that name. In the Exchange 2000 Administrator Account dialog box, type the name of the user or group that is responsible for installing Exchange 2000. The account that you specify will also have permission to create all levels of Exchange 2000 administrator accounts with the Exchange Administrative Delegation Wizard. Click Next . When the ForestPrep process begins, a dialog box prompts you to verify the schema update. Click OK . In the Completion dialog box, click Finish .

10. 11. 12.
Prepare the Domain You need to run DomainPrep in each Windows 2000 domain that you want to install Exchange 2000 in. Before you can run the DomainPrep process, replication of the schema updates by the ForestPrep process must finish. Note If you are running the domainprep command in the same domain in which you ran the forestprep command, skip steps 5 and 6. To run the domainprep command in a domain: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Insert the Exchange 2000 CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. You can run the domainprep command on any computer that is running Windows 2000 Server in the domain. Click Start , and then click Run . In the Open box, type CD_drive_letter \setup\i386\setup /domainprep , where CD_drive_letter is the letter of your CD-ROM drive. In the Welcome dialog box, click Next.

In the Recipient Update Server dialog box, type the name of the computer that you want to be the Exchange 2000 recipient update server for this domain. This computer must not be installed yet, but a computer account must exist in the Active Directory Users and Computers Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in. When you install the first instance of Exchange 2000 in this domain, that instance must use the computer account that you enter in this step. Click Next . In the Completion dialog box, click Finish .
9.
Install Exchange 2000 on Each Node After you extend the schema with ForestPrep, and prepare the domain with DomainPrep, you can install Exchange 2000 on the cluster. Install Exchange 2000 completely on one node before you began to install Exchange 2000 on the other node. Note If you are installing the Exchange 2000 cluster in an existing Exchange Server 5.5 organization, the Exchange 2000 cluster may not be the first Exchange 2000 server in a site, and
Page 56 of 66
the Exchange 2000 cluster may not be a bridgehead server. This is because the Exchange 2000 Site Replication Service (SRS) is not currently supported in a clustered environment, and Exchange 2000 requires an SRS to exist in a mixed Exchange 2000 and Exchange Server 5.5 environment. For more details about clustering, see Chapter 20 of the Exchange 2000 Server Deployment Guide, which can be found in the Docs folder on the Exchange 2000 Server installation CD-ROM. The following procedure describes how to install Exchange 2000 on a cluster in a forest that contains no earlier version of Exchange Server (for example, Exchange Server 5.5). The second procedure describes how to join an Exchange 2000 cluster to an existing Exchange Server 5.5 site. To install Exchange 2000 in a forest that contains no earlier versions of Exchange Server: 1. 2. Log on to the first node of the cluster by using the cluster service account. Insert the Exchange 2000 CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. The Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 dialog box should be displayed automatically.

Note When you install Exchange 2000 on a cluster, be sure to use the same account that was used to install the Cluster services. If you do not use this account, the following error message is displayed: An unknown error has occurred. Facility: Win32 ID no: c0075000 Microsoft Exchange Cluster Administrator Extension. Configure the Exchange 2000 Resources in Cluster Administrator (Exchange 2000 Virtual Servers) The final step in configuring Exchange 2000 on a Windows 2000 cluster is to configure the cluster resources in Cluster Administrator. To configure the cluster resources in Cluster Administrator, you need to:
? Create a resource group for Exchange 2000. ? Create an IP Address resource. ? Create a Network Name resource. ? Add disk resources to the resource group. ? Create the Exchange 2000 System Attendant resource.
Create a Resource Group for Exchange 2000 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. On the first node of the cluster, click Start , point to Administrative Tools, and then click Cluster Administrator . Right-click the Groups container, click New , and then click Group . The New Group Wizard starts. In the Name box, type Exchange Group . In the Description box, type a description of this group (optional). Click Next . In the Preferred Owner dialog box, verify that there is either one or no cluster node listed in the Available nodes box, and then click Finish . Exchange Group is displayed under Groups .
Note The Preferred Owner dialog box must not contain both nodes in the cluster. If both nodes are made preferred owners and one node stops working, Exchange Server would failover and failback repeatedly, which effectively takes the entire resource offline. Create an IP Address Resource 1. 2. Right-click Exchange Group , point to New , and then click Resource . The New Resource Wizard starts. In the New Resource dialog box, type Exchange IP Address in the Name box.
Page 58 of 66

In the Description box, type a description (optional). In the Resource Type box, click IP Address. Verify that the Group box contains Exchange Group . In the Possible Owners dialog box, verify that both nodes appear in the Possible owners box. In the Dependencies dialog box, verify that no resources appear in the Resource dependencies box. In the TCP/IP Address Parameters dialog box, type the static IP address and subnet mask for this virtual server.
Note It is highly recommended that the Exchange cluster have its own dedicated static IP address, separate from all other resources (including the quorum) that are defined in Cluster Administrator. Create a Network Name Resource 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Right-click Exchange Group , point to New , and then click Resource . The New Resource Wizard starts. In the New Resource dialog box, type Exchange Network Name in the Name box. In the Resource type box, click Network Name . In the Possible Owners dialog box, verify that both nodes are displayed in the Possible owners box. In the Dependencies dialog box, click Exchange IP Address in the Available resources box, and then click Add . In the Network Name Parameters dialog box, type a name for the Exchange Server computer in the Name box. This is the network name that identifies this Exchange virtual server on your network. Click Finish .
Add Disk Resources to the Resource Group To add disk resources to the resource group, move the disk to the Cluster Group node: 1. 2. Click Start , point to Administrative Tools , and then click Cluster Administrator . In the Groups container, click the resource group that contains the Physical Disk resources that you want to store the Exchange databases on. Drag the disks to the Exchange Group container.
Create the Exchange 2000 System Attendant Resource 1. 2. Right-click Exchange Group , point to New , and then click Resource . In the New Resource dialog box, type a name and a description of the resource. In the Resource Type box, click Microsoft Exchange System Attendant . In the Group box, click Exchange Group . In the Possible Owners dialog box, verify that both nodes in the cluster are displayed in the Possible owners box. In the Dependencies dialog box, click to select the Exchange Network Name and Physical Disk check boxes under Resource dependencies, and then click Add . In the first Exchange dialog box, click the administrative group and routing group that you want to manage the virtual server. In the Account and Password dialog box, enter a valid user name and password. In the Data Directory dialog box, verify the location of the data files (for example, S:\Exchsrvr), and then click Next . To bring the service online, right-click Exchange Group , and then click Bring Online .
3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
After you successfully create the Exchange System Attendant resource, the Exchange System Attendant resource automatically creates all other virtual servers for the cluster. These servers include the following:
? Exchange Information Store Instance ? Exchange Message Transfer Agent Instance ? Exchange Routing Service Instance
Page 59 of 66
? SMTP Virtual Server Instance ? Exchange HTTP Virtual Server Instance ? Exchange IMAP4 Virtual Server Instance ? Exchange POP3 Virtual Server Instance ? Exchange MS Search Instance

How to Set Up the Migration Wizard (Q262201)
Summary
This article explains some migration concepts, and describes how to set up the Migration Wizard and how to migrate users.
More Information
You can use the Migration Wizard to extract users and their data from several messaging systems, such as Lotus Notes, Novell GroupWise, Lotus cc:Mail, Microsoft Mail, and so on. This article discusses:
? One-step versus two-step migrations ? Intermediate File Format ? Co-existence between old and new mail systems ? System requirements ? Migration Wizard instructions
One-Step vs. Two-Step Migrations

The Migration Wizard gives you the option to perform your migration in either one or two steps. If you choose to migrate in one step, data will be extracted and imported into the Exchange 2000 Server organization during one session of the Migration Wizard. If you choose to migrate in two steps, you will use two sessions of the Migration Wizard. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and Internet Message Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) migration functions work in conjunction with each other. The first step is to extract a user list from the LDAP directory, then run the wizard a second time, and use the list you extracted in the first step to extract the IMAP4 mail data. The Migration Wizard contains a list that shows you what type of mail systems the wizard can migrate from. Most of the procedures that are true for migrating from one type of mail system are true for another. There is an important exception, however, when you are performing a two-step migration from Microsoft Mail for PC Networks. In most two-step migrations, you always use the Import from Migration Files function for the second step. However, in a two-step migration from MS Mail, you must use the MS Mail for PC Networks function for both the first and second step. In the first step, MS Mail migration extracts only the directory to an Intermediate File Format (IFF) file and none of the mail data. When you import, the MS Mail data is written directly to Exchange 2000 by means of a direct MAPI interface. For all other mail systems that the Migration Wizard extracts from, the wizard first writes the user and mail data to IFF files, and then imports it to Exchange from the IFF files.
Intermediate File Format

The Migration Wizard uses Intermediate File Format (IFF) files in all types of migrations that it performs. IFF files are where the data is written to as it is extracted from the source mail system. If you are extracting a large post office that contains gigabytes of data, your IFF files will also be gigabytes in size. With the exception of MS Mail, every byte of information you extract is written to an IFF (MS Mail only writes user information to IFF; mail information is written directly to the Exchange information store without ever being written to an IFF file). There are three types of IFF files and you can tell the difference between them by their file extensions: Packing List or .pkl files, Primary or .pri files, and Secondary or .sec files. IFF files are comma-separated-value (CSV) files and can be viewed in a plain text editor, such as Notepad, or in a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel.
Page 65 of 66
The .pkl file is a list or inventory of all the other IFF files. The wizard uses this list as a database about all the IFF files that are involved in the migration. When you perform the second step of a two-step migration. The Migration Wizard needs the .pkl file to get started. There is one pri file for each user, and then one .pri file for the directory information of all users. If you are migrating five users, six .pri files are created. The Directory.pri file is a list of the users and their properties (display name, alias, addressing, and so on). The other .pri files contain the user's mail messages and are named in numbered sequence such as: 00000001.pri, 00000002.pri, and so on. The .sec files are used to hold large amounts of data, such as the body of a message or message attachments. The .pri files contain pointers to data in the .sec file. In other words, a user's .pri file contains message properties such as To, From, Cc, Subject, Date, Time, and so on. It also has a pointer that says to look in this .sec file beginning at this byte to get the body for this message. Any data amount in a message that exceeds 256 bytes is put in the .sec file, and a pointer to this data takes its place in the .pri file (some parts of messages, such as the body, are always put in the .sec file, even if they are shorter then 256 bytes).
Co-existence Between Old and New Mail Systems

If you have a large number of accounts that need to be migrated to Exchange 2000, it is recommended that you migrate in phases. This means that there will be a period of co-existence during which the old mail system will be used by part of the company and Exchange 2000 will be used by another part of the company. Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server includes several mail gateways, called connectors, which allow these mail systems to co-exist with Exchange 2000. The connectors also support directory synchronization. This means that Exchange 2000 users are represented in the address book of your other mail system, and users of the other mail system have objects representing them in the Exchange 2000 address book (Active Directory). The Migration Wizard allows you to view the Active Directory objects that are going to be converted before you start the process. It also allows you to change the pairing of migrated users to Active Directory objects.
System Requirements
Hardware and Software Requirements
? A Windows 2000-based server that is a member of a domain. ? An Exchange 2000 server with Exchange System Manager installed.
Note When you install Exchange System Manager, the Migration Wizard is automatically installed.
? A minimum of 50 megabytes (MB) of free disk space on the Exchange server system drive. If
you are migrating a large amount of data, you may need more space.
