Moving Exchange Files to a NAS System
Feature Pack Deployment Guide 38
Overview of the Remote Storage Tools for Exchange
To move the databases and transaction logs for an Exchange storage group to a Windows
Storage Server computer, you must use a remote storage tool. If you move files without using a
remote storage tool, Exchange Server 2003 cannot access the remotely stored files.
The Feature Pack provides two remote storage tools:
Remote Storage Wizard
WSSExchMove.exe command-line tool
The remote storage tools are used to move the databases and transaction logs for an existing
Exchange storage group to existing shared folders that are hosted on a Windows Storage Server
computer.
There is no way to specify a remote destination location when you create a new database in
Exchange. Thus, you must first create a database locally, and then move the database to the
remote location by using one of the remote storage tools.
The remote storage tools also do not create and share the folders on the destination server.
Before moving Exchange files, you must create the shares and assign the required permissions.
Note
Moving a storage group to a remote location requires that Exchange access the
databases and transaction logs over a network connection. Before moving a storage
group, verify that your network is configured correctly. For configuration
recommendations when deploying Windows Storage Server 2003 Feature Pack, see
Chapter 1, “Planning a Deployment.”
Shutdown Order for the Exchange and Windows Storage Server Computers
When you have Exchange databases and transaction logs stored on a Windows Storage Server
computer, use the following shutdown order when you need to restart one or both of the servers:
If you need to restart either the Exchange server or the Windows Storage Server computer,
always shut down the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service on the Exchange
server before shutting down the server.
If you need to restart both servers, restart the Windows Storage Server computer first and
then the Exchange server. This ensures that any storage groups that are hosted by the
Windows Storage Server computer are available when Exchange Server 2003 starts.
Two Types of Move
The Remote Storage Wizard and the WSSExchMove.exe command-line tool both support two
types of move: a full move or a configuration update. The key distinctions between these two
types of move are the physical locations of the files after the move and the prerequisites that
must be met to successfully complete the move.
Full Move
During a full move, the physical files are transferred and the required configuration updates are
performed. The existence of the physical files is verified before any action is taken. If the
physical files cannot be accessed, the move fails.
During a full move, any stores that are being moved must be dismounted; if transaction logs are
being moved, all stores from the storage group are dismounted. After the files are moved, any
