Ref: Outlook 2003/07/10 with RPCClientAccessServer

  http://technet.microsoft.com/zh-tw/magazine/ff626260.aspx Client Creation Q: Do you have any best practices to share for creating an Exchange 2010 CAS array in an Active Directory site? A: I’d advise you to create the CAS array before you make any Mailbox databases or move any mailboxes to an Exchange 2010 Mailbox server in a site. Exchange 2010 Mailbox databases have an attribute called RpcClientAccessServer. If there’s no CAS array in the Active Directory site when the database is created, this will be populated with the server FQDN of an Exchange 2010 CAS server in the Active Directory site. If you create the CAS array before any Mailbox databases, this attribute will instead be given the FQDN of the CAS array as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 RpcClientAccessServer attribute on a Mailbox database. Why is this a good idea? The Outlook client (whether Outlook 2003, 2007 or 2010) won’t pick up the change automatically. If you use Outlook 2007 or 2010, you can have ...

Ref: Mail Submission on DAG member also Hub Transport Server

  http://technet.microsoft.com/zh-tw/magazine/ff626260.aspx Q: I’m planning to upgrade our environment from Microsoft Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010. This im plementation has to be fully redundant on all levels.Because our organization has about 3,000 users, I plan to install Exchange on two machines initially. Each will have the Hub Transport (HT), Client Access Server (CAS) and Mailbox (MB) server roles. Both will also be members of a Database Availability Group (DAG), so the servers will replicate databases between themselves . From our experience with the current Exchange environment, I know that if the HT and MB roles are on the same machine, the Microsoft Exchange Mail Submission service always prefers the local HT server. It doesn’t use other HT servers in the Active Directory site in a round robin fashion, as do MB servers that don’t have the HT server role. If this is the same in Exchange 2010, we have an issue. Keeping the transport dumpster on a DAG member doesn...
