Q. How can I easily install the Windows Server 2008 roles and features that Exchange Server 2007 requires?

• The Client Access server-role input file—

  

• The Mailbox server-role input file—

  

• The Edge Transport server-role input file—

  

• The Unified Messaging (UM) server-role input file—

  

• The Hub Transport server-role input file—

  

I ran the following code and Client-Access-server-role input file to show what the output would be—notice that I used the -whatif switch so the changes weren't actually made. To install the roles, don't use the -whatif switch.

Don't worry if some roles or features are already installed. The existence of other roles or features won't affect any installations.
