WINDOWS SERVER 2019 & iLo 4 & EXCHANGE 2019 - ARCHITECTURE
Budget: $50 – $0 AUD
I have 4 HP ML380 Gen8 servers in 1 location running HyperV. Wish to consodilate servers and ensure no data loss. (These are 2 Production and 2 Archive)
I also have 1 HP DL380 Gen8 in a second location.
Need to establish Failover both in location 1 (for server error) and then to location 2 if location 1 fails (power or internet).
Need to rename NICs to ensure consistency between servers.
Need to install insight manager for pre-failure reporting errors on all servers.
Also need ilo Federation created with reporting.
In relation to Physical Servers - need RAID6 configuration and appropriate setup of drives.
Need Backup (full and incremental) to be setup through Windows.
Need to run data deplication on various VMs.
Need to decommission ADRMS
Need to establish trust between 2 ADs and then remove one AD. ADs are in both locations. Need to reduce to 1 AD in each location. Note currently have 1 domain for Exchange and 1 for all other. Reduce to 1 Domain.
Need to ensure latest updates (server and exchange) and firmware are running on all servers
Need to ensure that server ports are locked down but for Exchange and internet access.
Exchange Server is structured to run a Witness Server. Need to ensure that operating effectively.
What else??? Tell me how you can effectively deploy.
Need to review antivirus. Currently using Kaspersky. Consdiering all we have is MS, what exchange & server antivirus should we use.
