Exchange 2010 P to V ESX 4.5

Hi

I've been tasked with migrating our Exchange 2010 single server solution from a physical server to a virtual.  We have all three primary roles (Hub Transport, Client Access, & Mailbox) installed on one server.

The mail store is attached SAN and is roughly 600 GB.

What is the best (and easiest) way to P to V?

Thanks.

Tony

ASKER

so the process would be something like:

1.  Build new virtual Exchange 2010 server and join to Exchange Org with no roles
2.  Do a live migration of all the roles from the physical server to the new virtual
3.  Remove the old physical server from the org
4.  shut down the old physical server

??

Thanks.
