Changing Exchange from Mixed Mode to Native Mode

abendayan · ‎01-07-2008

I've have Exchange configured for mixed mode in my Unity implementation and I have no need for it to be running mixed mode as all my exchange servers are Exchange 2000. I know how to make the change but I want to know how risky of a change it is to undertake. Has anyone had to make this change and if so, did you encounter any unexpected problems? Are there any considerations or special circumstances that I need to consider?

Thanks.

AB,

Unity with Exchange in native mode is definitely supported. You should not have any problems with this change.

Hope this helps. If so, please rate the post.

Brandon,

Thanks for the reply, I guess my question is in an existing installation, how much risk is there with converting from mixed mode to native mode? I don't want to go in and make the change and then find out that something is broken and all three Unity servers are now no longer working correctly.

Thanks.

AB,

I would hesitate to say that there is no risk involved, but since Unity is supported in both mixed and native modes, I would say the risk is very minimal.
