Litware, Inc., is a manufacturing company located in North America.
The company has a main office and two branch offices. The main office is located in Chicago. The branch
offices are located in Baltimore and Los Angeles.
Existing Environment
Active Directory Environment
The network contains one Active Directory forest named litwareinc.com. Each office is configured as an Active
Directory site.
All domain controllers in the Los Angeles office run Windows Server 2008 R2. All domain controllers in the
Chicago office run Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1). All domain controllers in the Baltimore office
run Windows Server 2012.
All of the FSMO roles are located on a domain controller in the Baltimore office. All of the domain controllers
are configured as global catalog servers.
You have a distribution group for each department. The distribution groups contain all of the users in each
respective department.
Network Infrastructure
The servers in each office are configured as shown in the following table.

The Baltimore and Chicago offices have independent Internet connections. Internet connectivity for the Los
Angeles office is provided through Chicago.
Users frequently send large email messages to other users in the company. Recently, you increased the
maximum message size to 50 MB.
Planned Changes
The company plans to deploy a new Exchange Server 2013 infrastructure that will contain two Clients Access
servers and two Mailbox servers in the Chicago office. The servers will be configured as shown in the following
table.

All client connections to the Exchange Server organization will be routed through a hardware load balancer. The
name client.litwareinc.com will point to the virtual IP address of the hardware load balancer.
Once the transition to Exchange Server 2013 in the Chicago office is complete, all mail flow to and from the
Internet will be managed centrally through that office by using a Send connector that has the following
configurations:
Connector name: CH-to-Internet
Address space: *
Source servers: CH-EX2, CH-EX3
Cost: 10

DRAG DROP
You are planning the upgrade to Exchange Server 2013.
You plan to perform the following tasks:
Identify the number of email messages sent and received by the users in the current Exchange Server
organization.
Identify how many IOPS are required to provide adequate access to mailboxes for all of the users in the
planned organization.
Validate that all of the planned servers will meet the IOPS requirements of the planned organization.
You need to identify which tool must be used to achieve each task.
Which tools should you identify?To answer, drag the appropriate tool to the correct task in the answer area. Each tool may be used once, more
than once, or not at all. Additionally, you may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

(Exchange 2013 Server Role Requirements Calculator
Yes, this is no longer a Mailbox server role calculator; this calculator includes recommendations on sizing Client
Access servers too!)
After you have determined the design you would like to implement, you can follow the steps in the Exchange
2010 Mailbox Server Role Design Example article within the Exchange 2010 Online Help to calculate yoursolution’s CPU, memory, and storage requirements, or you can leverage the Exchange 2010 Mailbox Server
Role Requirements Calculator.
The calculator is broken out into the following sections (worksheets):
Input
Role Requirements
Activation Scenarios
Distribution
LUN Requirements
Backup Requirements
Log Replication Requirements
Storage Design
Based on the above input factors the calculator will recommend the following architecture, broken down into
four sections:
Environment Configuration
Active Database Copy Configuration
Server Configuration
Log, Disk Space, and IO Requirements

Microsoft Exchange Server Jetstress 2010
Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP1, Exchange Server 2010
Jetstress 2010 works with the Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 database engine to simulate the Exchange
database and log disk input/output (I/O) load.
You can use Jetstress 2010 to verify the performance and stability of a disk subsystem prior to putting an
Exchange 2010 server into production. Jetstress helps verify disk performance by simulating Exchange disk I/O
load. Jetstress simulates the Exchange database and log file loads produced by a specific number of users.
You use Performance Monitor, Event Viewer, and the Exchange Server Database Utilities (Eseutil.exe) tool in
conjunction with Jetstress to verify that your disk subsystem meets or exceeds the performance criteria you
establish. After successful completion of the Jetstress disk performance and stress tests in a non-production
environment, you will have verified that your Exchange 2010 disk subsystem is adequately sized (in terms of
performance criteria you establish) for the user count and user profiles you have established.
Important:
Jetstress testing should be performed before you install Exchange on the server.

Microsoft Exchange Server Profile Analyzer

The Microsoft Exchange Server Profile Analyzer tool lets administrators collect estimated statistical information
from a single mailbox store or across an Exchange Server organization.
You can use the collected data to perform the following operations:
Analyze the performance and health of a mailbox server.
Improve capacity planning models.
Improve testing methodologies and tools.
Improve future client and server products.STEPS
