Microsoft Exchange 2010 on Dell Systems: Simple Distributed Configurations

10,000 Mailboxes up to 300 MB each on PowerEdge R720xd
This reference architecture utilizes the Multi-role server and storage ―bricks‖ with internal storage. It
has been sized to provide mailbox sizes of up to 300 MB each. The Mailbox IO profile is sized for up to
100 messages per mailbox per day with 20% IO headroom to accommodate up to 0.12 IOPs per mailbox.
This solution is suitable for requirements of educational institutes or organizations which need larger
number of mailboxes with smaller mailbox size. This solution delivers high availability using Exchange
2010 mailbox resiliency with a two copy Database Availability Group (DAG). Both the active and passive
copies are local. This solution does not offer site resiliency.
