Exchange Server 2007 Deployment
Exchange Server 2007 provides a wizard to perform the installation.
Steps 1, 2 and 3 had already been completed before the Exchange Server 2007 installation began. The wizard was launched, license agreement reviewed and installation choices made.
A “typical” installation was performed. The Exchange Server will be installed in the default location. The Exchange organization was given as “Demartek-Lab”. Outlook 2003 clients are available in this environment, so the public folder database will be created.
After providing the data needed, the wizard performed the Readiness Checks then performed the actual installation.
Update Rollup 1 for Exchange Server 2007 was applied, and then the Exchange Server Management Console was launched.
Clicking the “Mailbox” item in the left panel revealed the details of the Exchange storage groups.
A new storage group will be created on the iSCSI target devices. The logs will be placed on the “M” volume and the data store will be on the “N” volume.
The iSCSI Storage Group now appears with the First Storage Group.
A new mailbox database will be created and mounted on the “N” iSCSI target volume.
The new mailbox is now ready for use.
