SCR seems to be a right solution..

but confused about how it work in my scenario or how would i implement it

any suggestion

Currently there are

3 Database on my exchange server
Database 1 ( 120 GB )
Database 2 ( 60GB )
Database 3 ( 25 GB )

what would be the right approach for this

Secondly ?

how it will work

Scenario - Once the server crashes, what will be the changes in real world and what needs to be done when the original server is recovered

Dont mind but i would further break the Database 1

How many mailboxes on
Database 1\2\3 ?

First time the Database and all logs would Replicate but once its done only changes would be replicated .... I would say more like how Outlook cache first time copies all data locally and then only sync changes :)

When Original server will be down you will have to run some manual command to point users to New server ... Mailflow and if Outlook 2007 onwards they would detect until all DC's are out as well
