Exchange Server Health Checklist

In this post we'll  talk about Exchange Monitoring  & Health Checks. What can you really consider as a true Health Check? What should be most important criterias or areas we an Exchange Admin should focus on while doing a Health Check.

The best thing is to follow the Check list guidelines as given by Microsoft   but by adding a personal touch to it which we'll discuss in the coming posts.

In the coming posts we'll let you know about the personal touch I was talking about.
