Planning a Deployment
Feature Pack Deployment Guide 17
High-Capacity Disk Drive Configuration
The disks are configured according to Exchange best practices, in which the Exchange databases
and transaction logs for each storage group are stored on separate RAID volumes that span
separate disk arrays on the Windows Storage Server computer.
High-Capacity Network Configuration
In the high-capacity scenario shown in Figure 1.3, the dedicated network uses a Gigabit switch
with a private local area network (LAN) between the Windows Storage Server computer and the
Exchange server. This configuration ensures that communication between the servers can use the
full network bandwidth.
Planning Deployment of the Exchange Server
This section describes the key areas to address when planning an Exchange deployment with the
Feature Pack.
Planning the Network Topology
The following is the recommended configuration for the network between the Windows Storage
Server computer and each Exchange server or Exchange cluster:
A dedicated Gigabit network.
At least two network adapters in each server or cluster:
One network adapter supports the dedicated Gigabit network for Exchange traffic between
the Exchange server and the Windows Storage Server computer. The hosts files on both the
Exchange server and the Windows Storage Server computer are edited to use that network.
For more information about editing the hosts file, see Chapter 2, “Installing the Feature
Pack.”
One network adapter is used to connect the Exchange server to the public network and the
Active Directory directory service.
Note
The Windows Storage Server computer and the Exchange 2003 servers must be in
the same Active Directory domain.
The Feature Pack supports the following Exchange server configurations:
One or two stand-alone Exchange servers
One or two clustered Exchange servers
One stand-alone Exchange server and one Exchange server cluster
Figure 1.4 shows a network topology for one Windows Storage Server computer that hosts
databases and transaction logs for two stand-alone Exchange servers. For each Exchange
server, a dedicated network handles Exchange traffic to and from the Windows Storage Server
computer.
