The Exchange 2000 deployment strategy you implement coincides directly with the administrative resources your company has available. Having a properly trained and fully staffed administrative support team provides your company with the support it needs to recover from a disaster in your Exchange 2000 organization.

Whether your company employs a centralized operations staff to handle all computer related disasters, or holds each department responsible for developing and implementing its own disaster recovery plans, your administrative plan is an important part of your Exchange 2000 deployment. For more information about developing a successful administrative plan, see Chapter 11, ôAdministration and Maintenance,ö in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Resource Kit.
