DRAG DROP
You have an Exchange Server 2007 organization.
You deploy servers that run Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1) to the organization. Your
network contains two Active Directory sites named Site1 and Site2. The organization contains five
servers. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.
You plan to move all mailboxes to Servers and to decommission Server1 and Server2. You need to
recommend the process to decommission Server1 and Server2. The solution must prevent
interruptions to the mail flow. What should you do?
To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange
them in the correct order.
You will need to uninstall Exchange 2007 and create the Edge subscription.
In a typical deployment scenario, the computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed
doesn’t have access to Active Directory. All the configuration and recipient information that the Edge
Transport server has to process messages is stored in AD LDS. Creating an Edge Subscription
establishes secure, automatic replication of information from Active Directory to AD LDS. The Edge
Subscription process provisions the credentials that are used to establish a secure LDAP connection
between Hub Transport servers and a subscribed Edge Transport server. The Microsoft Exchange
EdgeSync service that runs on Hub Transport servers then performs periodic one-way
synchronization to transfer data to AD LDS and keep that data up to date. This process reduces the
administration that you must perform in the perimeter network by letting you perform required
configuration on the Hub Transport server role and then write that information to the Edge
Transport server.
You subscribe an Edge Transport server to the Active Directory site that contains the Hub Transport
servers that will directly exchange messages with your Edge Transport servers. The Edge
Subscription process creates an Active Directory site membership affiliation for the Edge Transport
server. The site affiliation enables Hub Transport servers in the Exchange organization to relay
messages to the Edge Transport server for delivery to the Internet without having to configure
explicit Send connectors.
