Lab Setup
You do not need to use any virtual machines for this lab.

Lab Scenario
A. Datum Corporation is a consulting company specializing in enterprise Exchange Server deployments. The corporation has been asked to create high-level designs for deploying Exchange Server 2007 for several customers. The customers submitted their Active Directory configurations to A. Datum. Your job is to plan the Exchange Server deployments. The organizations need to know if they need to make any changes to their Active Directory structure before they can deploy Exchange Server 2007.

Lab Instructions for Module 1: Overview of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and the Active Directory

Directory Service

Exercise: Explaining How Exchange Server 2007 and Active Directory Work Together
Instructions
In this exercise, use the following scenarios to prepare the high -level designs for each organization. Designate one of your team members as your teams presenter, and another as your recorder. Be prepared to present your teams solutions to the class. Scenario 1: Tailspin Toys recently completed a buyout of Adventure Works. Both companies use Windows Server 2008 and Active Directory. Because the buyout was only recently completed, Tailspin Toys and Adventure Works each have their own separate Active Directory forest consisting of a single tree. Tailspin Toys has a single domain in its Active Directory forest named tailspintoys.com. Tailspin Toys has two physical locations in Vancouver and Miami. An Active Directory site is configured for each location. Adventure Works also has a single domain in its Active Directory forest named adventureworks.com. Adventure Works has a single physical location in Vancouver. No Active Directory sites have been configured for adventureworks.com. Scenario 2: Woodgrove Bank is a regional bank in the southeastern United States, encompassing five states. The head office is in Miami, and there are state offices in each of the other four states. The domain in Miami is Woodgrove.com. Other states are each in their own child domain. All users in each state log into their own sub-domain. This domain structure was originally a Microsoft Windows NT network that has been upgraded to Windows Server 2003. Scenario 3: Northwind Traders has an Active Directory forest with only one domain named northwindtraders.com. Northwind Traders has three physical locations, each with its own organizational unit in the domain. This network was originally a single physical location and a domain controller was added for each physical location. Active Directory is running with the default configuration, and users occasionally complain about slow logons.

Lab Instructions for Module 1: Overview of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and the Active Directory Directory Service 3

Discussion Questions
After the teams have delivered their solutions to the class, answer the following questions: Q What are the components that Exchange Server relies on and which need to be in place? A Exchange Server relies on Active Directory to function properly, such as the required correct placement of domain controllers and global catalog servers. DNS must also be properly implemented to allow Exchange servers and clients to query information for Active Directory. Q For scenario 1, what Active Directory changes should be made? A The two existing Active Directory forests should be merged into a single forest. This enables them to have a single Exchange Server organization with a single global address list. They may also consider migrating into a single domain with multiple OUs, but this would not affect the Exchange Server deployment. Q For scenario 1, what Active Directory sites should be configured? A A site should be configured for each physical location. Three Active Directory sites should be created for Miami, Vancouver Tailspin Toys, and Vancouver Adventure Works. If network links are fast enough, it may be possible to combine both Vancouver locations into a single site. Q For scenario 1, where should deployment of domain controllers and global catalog servers occur? A Domain controllers and global catalog servers should be implemented at each site with a computer running Exchange Server. The current configuration has a separate domain for each site and should have a domain controller and global catalog server for each site. Q For scenario 2, what Active Directory changes should be made? A No Active Directory changes are required, although consideration could be given to migrating to a single domain. Q For scenario 2, what Active Directory sites should be configured? A A site should be configured for each physical location. Five Active Directory sites should be created for Miami and the four other states.

Lab Instructions for Module 1: Overview of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and the Active Directory

Directory Service

Q For scenario 2, where should domain controllers and global catalog servers be deployed? A Domain controllers and global catalog servers should be implemented at each site with a computer running Exchange Server. The current configuration has a separate domain for each site and should have a domain controller and global catalog server for each site. Q For scenario 3, what Active Directory changes should be made? A No Active Directory changes are required. Q For scenario 3, what Active Directory sites should be configured? A A: A site should be configured for each physical location. Three Active Directory sites should be created. The current slow logon problem is indicative of sites not being configured. Q For scenario 3, where should domain controllers and global catalog servers be deployed? A Domain controllers and global catalog servers should be implemented at each site with a computer running Exchange Server. The domain controller at each site should also be configured as a global catalog server. Q When scaled out, why does routing become critical? A In a small organization with a single site, routing is relatively unimportant because communication among all of the servers is fast and reliable. In a larger organization, with many physical sites, routing is important. When the large organizations physical sites are poorly implemented, such as when site links are configured with incorrect costs (causing inefficient routing), unnecessary network traffic is created that overwhelms network links. In addition, incorrectly configured routing may result in unreliable message delivery. Q Will your organization need to make changes to your Active Directory configuration before deploying Exchange Server 2007? A Answers will vary. However, in most cases, students will already have a well defined Active Directory structure implemented. This structure will likely have been in place for some time. The most common change would be to refine the sites and site links.

Lab Scenario
A. Datum Corporation has recently completed a review of its messaging system. Based on this review, the following recommendations were made: Recommendation 1: Install the latest service pack for Exchange Server 2007 on all servers. No software updates have been performed on the existing Exchange servers since the initial installation. There are now a number of security updates that must be applied. Several new features are available in the latest service pack that you believe will be useful for your users. Recommendation 2: Add a Mailbox server role in the Sydney location. A. Datum Corporation has just purchased another company. The existing Exchange servers are running near capacity and cannot handle the addition of the users from the newly purchased company. To accommodate the new users, a new Mailbox server must be added. Recommendation 3: Expand the existing disk space on the server SYD-EX2. The mailbox database on SYD-EX2 is used by the executives of A. Datum Corporation. There are no mailbox limits on these users because they often need to retrieve old correspondence. To accommodate the growing database, larger disks must be installed in SYD-EX2.
