Hi<br />
<br />
I am learning about SCR in Exchange 2007 and DR, and there is one thing I'm not sure on. <br />
<br />
We have one campus (AD site), which has two Data Centre rooms, DC1 and DC2. They both have a CCR cluster each and an SCR target each. So DC1 CCR has SCR copy to the DC2 SCR target etc.<br />
<br />
Question - if DC1 goes down, then we would activate the SCR target for DC1_CCR which is in DC2. This takes care of the mailbox side of things, but how about the Hub/CAS servers, how can we prevent connections going to them? <br />
<br />
For the Hub, would we need to pause the Transport service or the Queues in any way? <br />
<br />
And what about the CAS?<br />
<br />
I guess if we had both DC's in a seperate AD site, that would have helped?
