Reader Reviews
Jim McBee has done it again by writing an amazing book on Exchange 2003 administration. That was kind of a generic statement, right? I will dive into it in a bit...promise. I own a small library of Exchange books, accumulated over 12 years supporting Exchange, and around 15 in the IT biz. If there was one Exchange 2003 book that I had to put on my shelf, this would be it. Many of the principles that Jim goes over may be easily applied to Exchange 2000. Diving into the "amazing book" stuff a bit further... Essentially this book bridges the gap between the printed architectural and design books and answers the question "What do I need to know in order to run my day to day operations?" as well as "What can I do to troubleshoot my environment and make it better?" Many admins are plagued with not having a single book which delves deep into the guts of administering their Exchange 2003 servers and improving their environment. There are plenty of great books out there which will teach you how Exchange functions, how to architect Exchange servers, and how to plan your environment. However, books regarding the operation of an Exchange 2003 infrastructure are limited. This book brings this type of information and melds it into a single source for operating a production Exchange environment as well as provides a great set of fundamental learning. While all of the chapters are great and the information is enlightening, the Clustering 101 chapter is my favorite. As organizations need to plan for continuity of operations (COOP), clustering and clustered systems are gaining in popularity. This chapter provides some really great information regarding clustering Exchange. I am a former Microsoft MVP, who participated with the LCS and Exchange MVP teams. I also participate in the Exchange forums of Experts Exchange. As such, it is easy to see when a great book is written. Jim McBee has written another winner and a great time saver. This book was definitely worth every minute. -Bob Comment | | (Report this)
