Automating Exchange Server Installations

In large Exchange deployments, providing automation for the installation and testing will go a long way to improve the accuracy of the deployment and reduce administrator stress.

The focus of this section is to provide some ideas on what portions might easily be automated and provide a few example scripts that you might be able to adapt for your environment.
