Microsoft Exchange 2010 introduced improvements to archiving, retention, discovery tools, backup processes, and online mailbox moves. It transitioned from a storage group model to a database availability group (DAG) model for high availability and introduced role-based access controls. DAGs use log shipping between up to 16 servers to provide redundancy without shared storage. Other new features included improved Outlook Web Access, remote PowerShell management, and support for 64-bit platforms only.
Microsoft Exchange 2010 in 10 slides
- 1. debilloez.net Microsoft Exchange 2010 in 10 Slides
- 2. What’s new Archiving, Retention, and Discovery Management Tools : self-service capabilities through the Exchange Control Panel, Role Base Access Control RPC Client Access Service Improved Backup Improved IO Usage (fewer disk IO) On-Line move mailbox Improved OWA (premium on Safari etc …)
- 3. What we « loose » WebDAV and other (CDOex …) Storage Group -> « Database only » model LCR , SCC , SCR , CCR -> but in fact they are improved to Database Availability Group (DAG) a more evolutive solution. Since Exchange 2003 we already loose : Outlook Mobile Access (WAP OWA Like), Routing Group now based on AD.
- 4. Management (EMC,EMS,ECP,RBAC) Role Base Access Control Management role group Management role Management role assignment Management role scope
- 5. High Availability (with DAG) + CAS Servers also used in MAPI, no more direct access to MB servers !
- 6. How DAG work Based on log shipping Active manager services manage active database Up to 16 servers can be joined to a DAG with max of 100 database per server. Windows Failover Cluster with a FileShare Witness are background components. NO shared storage required (SAN) Everything is managed from EMS/EMC CAS redundancy MUST be planned (HLB,NLB)
- 7. Other benefit’s in DAG configuration Backup of passive database Multiple roles are now possible (MB+CAS+HUB) CAS on DAG member require Hardware Load Balancing (no NLB support) Evolution from, standalone config -> Local redundancy -> site resiliency, is now possible.
- 8. High availability for server roles Client Access Server (CAS) Use Network load balancing or Hardware Load Balancing HUB Server by default, nothing required Edge Server (for SMTP) Use DNS round robin and multiple MX record
- 9. Other « Stuff » Remote powershell is now possible Specific AD requirements Exchange 2003 SP2 at least No « in place » upgrade 64 bits only (including management tools) Exchange 2010 in the Cloud available SSL need to be planned like for Exchange 2007
