Where Do I Install an Exchange Server Agent?

Recent releases of Exchange Server are modular applications comprising multiple server roles. Take care to install the Exchange server agent on the correct server!

Exchange Server 2007 and 2010

These applications have five server roles. For large organizations, the Exchange environment may be highly complex and can contain multiple Active Directory sites, each of which can contain multiple Mailbox servers and one or more Hub Transport servers. Depending on the needs of your organization, you can install a Mailbox server and a Hub Transport sever on the same computer or on separate computers.

To enable CA DataMinder to monitor and control all communications sent via Exchange 2007 or 2010, you must install the CA DataMinder Exchange server agent on each Hub Transport server.

Exchange Server 2013

The number of server roles in Exchange 2013 was reduced to two. These roles are the Mailbox Server role (which includes the Hub Transport service) and the Client Access Server role.

To enable CA DataMinder to monitor and control all communications sent via Exchange 2013, you must install the CA DataMinder Exchange server agent on each Mailbox server.
