You will need to make the neccessary changes on the DNS for the move to indicate the new MX records settings.. also note that it might be possible for you to have multilple instances of the exchange servers running at the same time.. in order to mninimise or avoid complete downtime i think you can add some more exxchange ervers with a different alias name and also have different mx priority... but check again with others.. but i think you can go ahead with the move by a proper plan and avoid complete downti,e.. that is zero down time. -----Original Message----- From: Faisal Athar [mailto:faisal_athar@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 10:23 AM To: [ExchangeList] Cc: msexchange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [exchangelist] Exchange Move over http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hello Exchange Gurus, Need your suggestions for a basic Exchange move over. We are having around 6 Exchange servers (5.5)residing in USA,serving for Australia. Now we want to move these servers locally to Australia to serve Australia customers.We are using Domain for eg. @ABC.com and want to implement the same domain. My Question is that what is the best way to do this kind of move if we consider factors like down time and economical solution. My 2nd Questions, If we want to move the customers in Australia to Subdomain like @Australia.ABC.com.What else we need to do? Thanks for your help in advance.
