Preparing the target server
In this section, you will be installing software on the target and configuring Exchange on the target.
1. Configure the target as a Windows 200x member server in the same Active Directory domain as the
source.
2. Apply any Windows 200x service packs or patches.
3. Install Exchange 200x on the target placing it in the same Exchange organization as the source and
verifying that the installation locations are the same as the source.
4. Apply any Exchange service packs or patches. Exchange 2000 requires Service Pack 3 or later.
NOTE: Make sure that your Exchange installation selections and storage locations on the target are the
same as the source.
5. On the target, change the Exchange services that are automatic startup to manual startup. If an
Exchange service is disabled because it is not necessary for your environment, leave the service
disabled. Listed below are Exchange services. Not all services may be used or present in your
environment depending on your Exchange version.
