Best Practices
Exchange Server is a disk-intensive application. Based on the testing runs using the ESRP framework,
we recommend the following Microsoft best practices for storage system design for Exchange Server
2007, available at: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l
ibrary/bb124518.aspx.

Test Result Summary
This section provides a high level summary of the test data from ESRP and the link to the detailed
HTML reports which are generated by ESRP testing framework. Please click on the underlined
headings below to view the HTML report for each test.
Reliability
A number of tests in the framework are to check Reliability tests runs for 24 hours. The goal is to
verify the storage can handle high I/O load for a long period of time. Both log and database files will be
analyzed for integrity after the stress test to ensure no database/log corruption.
The following list provides an overview: (click on the underlined word will show the HTML report after
the reliability tests run)
No errors reported in the saved eventlog file.
No errors reported in during the database and log checksum process.
Primary Storage Performance Results
The Primary Storage performance testing is designed to exercise the storage with maximum
sustainable Exchange type of I/O for 2 hours. The test is to show how long it takes for the storage to
respond to an I/O under load. The data below is the sum of all of the logical disk I/O’s and average of all
the logical disks I/O latency in the 2 hours test duration. Each server is listed separately and the
aggregate numbers across all servers is listed as well.
Individual Server Metrics:
The sum of I/O’s across Storage Groups and the average latency across all Storage Groups on a per
server basis.
