ProLiant 6000 Exchange Server Configurations
Results presented in this paper were based on two different ProLiant 6000 hardware
configurations. The configurations were designed to provide for the availability of two distinct
levels of hardware resource for Exchange Server. This gave the ability to compare performance
characteristics under the same user loads with different levels of hardware resource. The tested
configurations are detailed below.
