I am going to install a new mail server on a remote network and I would like to cluster this new server with the pre-existing Exchange 2007 server.<br />
<br />
What steps do I need to take to create a cluster in Exchange 2007 using a server that already has Exchange 2007 running on it but does not have the Active clustered Mailbox role on it?<br />
<br />
Do I need to reinstall Exchange 2007 on the original mail server and remove the current mailboxes? <br />
