Network and Active Directory Services Environment -
Domain functional level - Should use at least Windows 2000 Server native or Server 2003 domain functional level for all domains in the Active Directory forest where you will install Exchange 2007.
Forest functional level - The forest functional level must be Windows Server 2003 in each forest that contains Exchange servers.
Active Directory domain names - Previous versions of Microsoft Exchange supported the renaming of Active Directory domains that contained Exchange servers. Exchange 2007 does not support renaming domains that contain computers running Exchange 2007.
Schema master - By default, the schema master runs on the first Windows Server 2003 domain controller installed in a forest.
Global catalog server - You must have at least one global catalog server that is running Windows Server 2003 SP1 or a later version in every ADDA where you need to install Exchange 2007.
Domain Controller / Active Directory Preparation - Must prepare Active Directory and your domain (Prepare schema, Prepare AD & etc) before installation of Exchange 2007. For details how to do this see the article - Installation of Exchange Server 2007.
[Note:-Recommended According to Microsoft-
For security and performance reasons, we recommend that you install Exchange 2007 only on member servers, and not on Active Directory directory servers. Although installing Exchange 2007 on a directory server is supported, it is strongly discouraged. However, you cannot run DCPromo on a computer running Exchange 2007. After Exchange 2007 is installed, changing its role from a member server to a directory server, or vice versa, is not supported.
If you install Exchange 2007 on a global catalog server, and if you restart the server, you may need to start the required Exchange services manually. For more information, see Knowledge Base article 940845, Exchange 2007 services cannot start automatically after you install Exchange 2007 on a global catalog server.]
