Hi All
I have a customer on EV 8.0 sp3 that has 5 EV servers ,3 mailbox archiving and 2 Journal
They are busy migrating users to Exchange 2010 and a new domain ,they eventually want to decommission the old domain that EV is currently installed into
Can an EV site and all its servers be moved to a new Windows Domain?I'm not talking about Migrating EV data but changing the initial EV install Windows domain, I imagine there would be SQL changes.
What are the things I need to be aware of ?
Thanks

Thanks Scanner
I'll go through this
Just as update .I read that discussion but it isn't't really what I'm looking for
Only Tony mentions he has done it and then includes links to how you move various EV components between servers , in my case all EV data locations and server names will stay same .Just the Domain that the EV servers are installed into will change
I understand this is an unusual EV request and most people haven't done it but I just want to know it can be done with Version 8/9
I am also chatting to Symantec pre-sales support about this...and I'll send an email to the SymIQ archiving user list to get feedback

So, what you want to do is change the Domain EV sits in. Is this Domain in the same forest as the original one?
