Hi:

we have two physical locations, want to setup an additional Exchange server
(with the same site name) to attempt boost the performance (will this do
it?), will we have to buy another Exchange server license and CALs to dual
up the one we already have ?

Thanks

You need an Exchange server license for each server that has Exchange on it.

You need 1 client access license for each user that will have a mailbox,
regardless of which server they are on. In other words if you have 200 users
and 50 are on one server and 150 are on the other you need 200 CALs. If next
week you move 25 of the users on the first server to the second you do not
have to buy any more licenses.

Good luck! /gary mcdonnell

You don't need one CAL per mailbox.
You need one CAL per system accessing the exchange server. This does
not mean concurrent users so if you have 200 PCs that will access
Exchange Server (Using any capable software) then you need 200 CALs
even though perhaps 100 might only be in the office at any one time.

If we have one Exchange site name, but both physical server is installed on
a separate location, (they still accessing the same site ), and we have
about 70 users, and 100 CAL, we do have to buy another Exchange server
license, do we need to buy any more CALs ?
