30. Install Exchange Server 2003 in stages:
31. a) Setup /forestprep
32. b) Setup /domainprep
33. c) Finally plain: setup
34. If you are new to Exchange 200x, a further difficult is that the setup
menu is quirky. Exchange has several strange drop down menus which are not
seen in other Microsoft setup programs. However, once you run this setup
menu a few times, you begin to understand how its mind works and
configuration becomes easier.
35. There are two reasons why you may want to install Exchange 2003 in
stages, security and the time it takes to run the first full setup. The adage:
'The more security you have the more work there will be', applies here. To
install Exchange 2003 you must be not only an Administrator, but also a
member of the Enterprise Admins and Schema Admins. Incidentally, consider
creating a special domain account which will used in installation, and then this account will become the first
Exchange 'Full Administrator'.
36. What setup /forestprep does is create the Exchange Organisation name in Active Directory. So be very
careful with this Organization name as you cannot change your mind later. In addition /forestprep extends the
schema and modifies the users attributes to include a mailbox. In practical terms, this means that 4 new tabs will
appear on the User's property sheet as viewed in Active Directory Users and Computers.
37. Make sure that you run /forestprep on the domain controller which is also the schema master and

55. Working with Exchange System Manager
56. Topic Last Modified: 2007-02-08
57. Exchange System Manager (Exchange System Manager.msc) is a specialized MMC console that helps you manage your Exchange
organization. When you perform a typical installation of Exchange 2003 onto a server, the installation wizard automatically installs the Exchange
System Management Tools onto that server, also.
Note:
Exchange Server 2003 does not run on 64-bit editions of Windows Server 2003. Exchange Server 2003 management tools for remote
administration can be installed on a computer running supported versions of Windows such as Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server
2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4). Exchange Server 2003 management tools cannot be installed on a computer running Windows Vista.
58. Exchange System Manager provides a consistent administrative experience for administrators who deal with all facets of Exchange
server management, including public folders, servers, routing, and policies. For detailed instructions, see How to Open Exchange System
Manager.
59. As shown in the following figure, the left pane of Exchange System Manager is the console tree.
61. The top node of this tree is the root organization node that contains all the Exchange containers. Each of these containers gives you
access to specific administrative features in Exchange. The following table describes what you can do with each of these containers.
Container Description
Global Settings Includes features to configure system-wide settings. These settings apply to all servers and recipients in an Exchange
organization.
Recipients Includes features to manage objects and settings for recipients in your organization. You can manage address lists,
offline address lists, recipient update services, recipient policies, mailbox management settings, details templates,
and address templates.
Administrative Includes features to manage administrative groups. Each group is a collection of Active Directory objects that are
Groups grouped together for permissions management. Each administrative group can contain policies, routing groups, public
folder hierarchies, and servers.
Note:
This container only appears if you have created administrative groups for your organization.
Servers Holds server-specific configuration objects, such as Queues, Mailbox stores, Public Folder stores, and Protocols
information.
System Policies Contains policies that affect the system's configuration settings. Policies are collections of configuration settings that
are applied to one or more Exchange objects in Active Directory.
Routing Groups Defines the physical network topology of Exchange servers. An Exchange mail system, or organization, includes one
or more servers running Exchange. Unless you plan a small Exchange installation, you will probably have more than
one Exchange server. In some organizations, these servers are connected by reliable, permanent connections.
Groups of servers that are linked in this way should be organized in the same routing group.
Note:
This container only appears if you have created routing groups for your organization.
Folders Displays public folder hierarchies. A public folder stores messages or information that can be shared with all
designated users in your organization. Public folders can contain different types of information, from simple messages
to multimedia clips and custom forms.
Tools Contains tools that help you to monitor your Exchange organization, track messages, and recover mailboxes.
