Adding a second Exchange server to domain

Hi ,

Currently we have one exchange server 2003 handling all of our email. I would like to create a new VM on a separate server to act as a scondary email server for the domain to provide fault tolerance if the other server goes down. I'm planning to install exchange 2010,

Being totally new to this, what would be the basic steps I follow to set this up? Is there a way of replicating or migrating exchange settings like when adding a new DC?

Upgrade to 2010 first and then add the new server for fault tolerance. Configure DAG between them. Coexsitence will not provide you any fault tolerance.
