HMC 4.5

Adventures in HMC

As many of my close friends know, I have been working on a project that is a roll out of a new Exchange 2007 platform for LightEdge Solutions. This has been an exciting project for me and one that has had many challenges. Over the next several months I will be sharing some of the challenges that we have run into with the rollout and HMC 4.5 (Hosted Messaging and Collaboration) and how we have worked around them.

Sloppy Documentation (HMC 4.x)

At work, I have a project that has been going on for a month or two. It originally started out as replacing our Hosted Exchange 2003 environment with a new fancy Exchange 2007 environment and add on extra features. To provision this, we have decided to abandon our own provisioning system due to various issues with documentation (or lack there of it) from Microsoft. So, we have decided to drink the Kool-Aid and are rolling with their HMC (Hosted Messaging and Collaboration).
