Figure 13 - 1 shows an example of an SCC configuration of a two - node
network. The following list describes the software requirements for a two - node MSCS deployment:
Because the SCC cluster uses Microsoft Server Clustering Service (MSCS), it is necessary to use
Microsoft Windows 2003 Server, or R2, Enterprise edition or Data Center edition. Clustering is
not available on the Web or Standard editions.
SCC clusters can be in different data centers, but must reside within the same AD site.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Enterprise is required for SCC clusters. If you are deploying
standard, then Local Continuous Clustering (LCR) is the only available clustering option.
Four IP addresses on the production network. One for each server, one for the MSCS cluster
name, and one address for the Clustered Mailbox Server.
Two IP addresses for heartbeat, or private network, communication: one for each node of
the cluster.
IIS must be installed on both nodes.

In addition you must verify that both nodes are running the same firmware on all hardware components
and are at the same patch level and service pack.
Running other versions of Exchange (2000 or 2003), Microsoft SQL Server, or non - Mailbox roles is not
supported.
