9 2 ENVIRONMENT RISKS 2.1 Active Directory Risks Both Domain controllers in root domain are placed in virtual machines Both Domain controllers in Child domain are placed in virtual machines Some users has password set to never expire (these are users who have been migrated from windows 2000 Domain controllers) A lot of inactive machines still appear in Active directory 2.2 Exchange Risks Some databases contain more users than other and this could affect the performance, maintenance, backup, and restore. Databases are not distributed equally on both servers which will make the whole load on one server (JED-MBX-02) and the other server (JED-MBX-01) doesn t have any load. Exchange Hub/CAS servers (JED-HUBCAS-01and JED-HUBCAS-02) currently working with 12 GB R is utilizing more than need more R due to high load during working hours and this cause a back pressure on Exchange servers. No archiving solution is applied on the current Exchange environment.

10 3 REMEDIATION RECOMMENDATIONS 3.1 Active Directory Recommendations Adding at least one physical Domain Controller for root and child domains Remove the check box on password never expire on all users except for services accounts. Remove old inactive users accounts to avoid compromising the security policy Remove old inactive computers accounts to compromising the security policy 3.2 Exchange Recommendations Some Databases need to be spitted into two or 4 smaller DBs for better performance and faster maintenance. DBs need to be distributed across servers by configuring the preferred servers. This will guarantee distributing the load of users across both servers Increase the R on both Hub/CAS servers by 4 GB on each server to solve the high memory utilization issue on both servers Enable Exchange Archiving for all or some users according to business needs Exchange Service Pack 3 need to be installed 3.3 General Recommendations Hyper-V environment need some enhancement by: Moving the Virtual Machines files to SAN storage Create a Hyper-V cluster and make single node machines like (SCOM, SCCM, ) high available SCOM 2007 R2 need some fine tuning to send only business critical events for the correct administrators Help Desk System is missing however System Center Service Manager 2010 is installed. Windows update policy is not defined and need to put a process to update both Servers and clients machines Backup and restore procedure is not defined and Customer in need to define the backup/restore procedures for critical applications like AD and Exchange. Disaster recovery plan is not defined for critical services in the site
