Upgrading from Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
to Microsoft Exchange 2003
Introduction
The goal of this course is to
provide students with the essentials skills and knowledge required to upgrade
from Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 to Microsoft Exchange 2003, including the
issues and procedures related to upgrading, restructuring, and providing coexistence
during the deployment process. This course will focus on choosing the
appropriate strategy to achieve the Exchange 2003 design, while leveraging the
information stored in the existing messaging system. It is assumed that
the desired Active Directory™ directory service and Exchange 2003 designs already
exist.
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
- Explain the process of upgrading from Exchange Server
5.5 to Exchange 2003
- Populate the Active Directory with Exchange Server 5.5
user information and keep the two directories (Active Directory and the
Exchange Server 5.5 directory) synchronised by using the Active Directory
Connector (ADC)
- Plan and deploy recipient connection agreements
- Establish and maintain both messaging coexistence and
directory coexistence between Exchange Server 5.5 and Exchange 2003
- Upgrade an existing Exchange Server 5.5 messaging environment
to Exchange 2003
- Upgrade the messaging environment by moving data from
an existing Exchange Server 5.5 organisation
- Choose an upgrade deployment strategy and create a deployment
project plan for upgrading Exchange Server 5.5 to Exchange 2003
