23
25,000 Mailboxes, up to 4GB each, Multi-Site configuration, on
PowerEdge R720xd with PowerVault MD1200
This reference architecture utilizes the Multi-role server and storage ―bricks‖ with internal and
external storage. It has been sized to provide mailbox sizes of up to 4GB each. The Mailbox IO profile
is sized for up to 150 messages per mailbox per day with 20% IO headroom to accommodate up to 0.18
IOPs per mailbox. This solution is suitable for requirements of medium to large organizations which
need larger number of mailboxes with larger mailbox size. This solution delivers high availability using
Exchange 2010 mailbox resiliency with a three copy Database Availability Group (DAG). One active and
one passive database copies reside on the same site & one passive database copy resides on the remote
site, so this solution offers site-level resiliency.
