Exercise 1: Evaluating Requirements and Prerequisites for an Exchange Server 2013 Installation
Scenario
The Active Directory administrators at A. Datum have prepared a test AD DS environment for the Exchange Server 2013 deployment. The server administration team has deployed a Windows Server 2012 server that you can use to deploy the first Exchange Server 2013 server in the test organization. You must verify that the Active Directory environment and the server meet all prerequisites for installing Exchange Server 2013. The main tasks for this exercise are as follows: 1. 2. Evaluate the Active Directory Requirements. Evaluate the DNS Requirements.
Task 1: Evaluate the Active Directory Requirements

On LON-DC1, evaluate whether the domain controller requirements are met: o o
Use Active Directory Users and Computers to evaluate whether the domain and forest functional level requirements are met. Use Adsiedit.msc to evaluate whether the Exchange schema changes are applied.
Task 2: Evaluate the DNS Requirements

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. On LON-EX1, verify that the DNS settings are configured appropriately. Ping the domain controller LON-DC1.adatum.com to verify network connectivity. Start the Nslookup utility from Windows PowerShell. Type set type=all. Perform an nslookup search for the _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.adatum.com SRV record. Verify that an SRV record for lon-dc1.adatum.com is returned. Close Window PowerShell.
Results: After completing this exercise, students will have AD DS requirements evaluated.
Exercise 2: Deploying Exchange Server 2013

Scenario
After evaluating the Exchange Server 2013 requirements, you are ready to begin the deployment process. You must first prepare AD DS, and then perform a single server Exchange installation. For evaluation purposes, all roles will be installed on a single server. At the end, you will verify whether the core Exchange services and components are installed correctly. The main tasks for this exercise are as follows: 1. 2. 3. Preparing AD DS for Exchange Server 2013 deployment. Performing Exchange Server 2013 installation on a single server. Verifying Exchange Server installation.
Task 1: Preparing AD DS for Exchange Server 2013 deployment

1. 2. 3. On LON-DC1, attach C:\Program Files\Microsoft Learning\20341A\Drives \ExchangeServer2013.iso to the virtual machine. On LON-DC1 open a Windows PowerShell window. Switch to D:\. Execute the proper command to prepare AD DS for your Exchange Server installation.
.\Setup.exe /PrepareAD /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms /OrganizationName:Adatum
4. 5.
Wait until the process completes. Close Windows PowerShell.
Task 2: Performing Exchange Server 2013 installation on a single server

1. 2. 3. 4. On LON-EX1, attach C:\Program Files\Microsoft Learning\20341A\Drives \ExchangeServer2013.iso to the virtual machine. On LON-EX1, check if the service Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service is set to start Automatically. Import the Server Manager module in Windows PowerShell, by using the Import-Module ServerManager cmdlet.
Install the Windows features for Exchange server, by typing: Install-WindowsFeature AS-HTTP-Activation, Desktop-Experience, NET-Framework-45Features, RPC-over-HTTP-proxy, RSAT-Clustering, Web-Mgmt-Console, WAS-Process-Model, Web-Asp-Net45, Web-Basic-Auth, Web-Client-Auth, Web-Digest-Auth, Web-Dir-Browsing, Web-Dyn-Compression, Web-Http-Errors, Web-Http-Logging, Web-Http-Redirect, Web-HttpTracing, Web-ISAPI-Ext, Web-ISAPI-Filter, Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console, Web-Metabase, WebMgmt-Console, Web-Mgmt-Service, Web-Net-Ext45, Web-Request-Monitor, Web-Server, Web-Stat-Compression, Web-Static-Content, Web-Windows-Auth, Web-WMI, WindowsIdentity-Foundation, and press Enter. (If you do not want to type this command you can copy the content of the file cmdlet.txt from C:\ drive.) After roles are installed, restart the server.
