    "How to determine whether an Exchange 2007 clustered mailbox server is in a cluster continuous replication environment or in a single copy cluster"


    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124721.aspx

    You can use Get-MailboxServer <CMSName> | fl Name, ClusteredStorageType in the Exchange Management Shell to determine if a clustered mailbox server is hosted in a CCR environment or in an SCC. A value of NonShared indicates that the clustered mailbox server is in a CCR environment, and a value of Shared indicates that the clustered mailbox server is in an SCC. A value of Disabled indicates that the Mailbox server is a stand-alone server.

    You can also check Active Directory to determine if a clustered mailbox server is hosted in a CCR environment or in an SCC by examining the value for the msExchClusterStorageType attribute of the Mailbox server object. A value of 1 for the msExchClusterStorageType attribute indicates that the clustered mailbox server is hosted in a CCR environment, and a value of 2 indicates that the clustered mailbox server is in an SCC. A value of <Not Set> indicates that the Mailbox server is a stand-alone server.

    SCR can be enabled in addition to any of the other clustering/replication modes.

    Just run the “Get-MailboxServer” cmdlet in the EMS, and check the value of ClusteredStorageType parameter. Please refer to KB 927460

    what is replication  in Exchange server ?

    what are the new features  and disadvantages  with Exchange server 2007 sp2

    Key new features of Exchange Server 2007 SP2

    Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2) Release Notes

  • Wednesday, October 28, 2009 7:00 AMRajnish R Sharma Users MedalsUsers MedalsUsers MedalsUsers MedalsUsers Medals
     
    Quoram Disk is shared disk between two nodes of Cluster (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/280345)

    Replication in exchange server is , replication of log files from one node to other (CCR and SCR) or LCR where the logs are replicated from one databse to another DB on the same server.

    Features of ERxch 2007 SP2 are

    • Enhanced Auditing - New Exchange auditing events and audit log repository enable Exchange administrators to more easily audit the activities occurring on their Exchange servers. It allows the right balance of granularity, performance, and easy access to audited events via a dedicated audit log repository. This simplifies the auditing process and makes review of audited events easier by segregating audited events in a dedicated location.
    • Exchange Volume Snapshot Backup Functionality - A new backup plug-in has been added to the product that will enable customers to create Exchange backups when a backup is invoked through the Windows Server 2008 Backup tool. Exchange Server 2007 didn't have this capability on Windows Server 2008 and additional solutions were required to perform this task.
    • Dynamic Active Directory Schema Update and Validation - The dynamic AD schema update and validation feature allows for future schema updates to be dynamic deployed as well as proactively preventing conflicts whenever a new property is added to the AD schema. Once this capability is deployed it will enable easier management of future schema updates and will prevent support issues when adding properties that don't exist in the AD schema.
    • Public Folder Quota Management - SP2 enables a consistent way to manage quotas by improving the current PowerShell cmdlets to perform quota management tasks.
    • Centralized Organizational Settings - SP2 introduces new PowerShell option that enable centralized management of many of the Exchange organization settings.
    • Named Properties cmdlets - SP2 enables Exchange administrators to monitor their named property usage per database.
    • New User Interface for Managing Diagnostic Logging- SP2 enables Exchange administrators to easily configure and manage diagnostic logging from within the Exchange Management Console.

    By management console, do you mean EMC? Why can’t you use EMS?

    If you must use EMC, then follow the steps below:

    a.      Launch the EMC

    b.      Select “Mailbox” under “Server Configuration” node, right-click the CMS server, select “Properties”

    c.       In the “Clustered Mailbox Server” tab, you can see the cluster type, like the “figure 19” in this article
