you should go with another new hardware, if u install AD, exchange with share point so may it will affect in server performance.<br />
or use Vmware with strong hardware configuration.

i just need to point out that exchange running on a domain controller is in fact fully supported it is just not recommended.<br />
<br />
The only catch is to install exchange AFTER the server is a domain controller and not the other way around and never dc promo out while it is an exchange server<br />
<br />
this being said it seems too much to handle for only one server to me

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
I have a Windows 2008 R2 server installed as a stand-alone server.<br />
I need to install Exchange on it, so I need to configure a domain using dcpromo.<br />
<br />
The thing is that Sharepoint 2010 and Team Foundation Server are already installed.<br />
<br />
I wonder if there is a problem of doing it ?<br />
<br />
Do you have any advise on how to promote it ? &nbsp;Is there any documentation I have not found that can guide me ?<br />
Should I uninstall these Sharepoint and TFS and if so, is a backup of the Sharepoint ContentDB and TFS DB sufficient ?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
<br />
Vincent
