Installing Exchange Server 2013 Pre-Requisites on Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2
Exchange Server 2013 can be installed on Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2, either Standard or Datacenter edition.
Windows Server 2012 will support any of the Exchange 2013 server roles. Unlike Windows Server 2008 R2, if you want to run Exchange Server 2013 Mailbox servers as members of a Database Availability Group you can still do so with the Standard edition of Windows Server 2012. Enterprise edition is not required for DAG members.
Note: Exchange Server 2013 Service Pack 1 added support for installing on Windows Server 2012 R2. For the purposes of this article any mention of Windows Server 2012 includes R2, and assumes that you will be installing Exchange Server 2013 SP1 or later.
As there are only two Exchange Server 2013 server roles there are only two combinations of pre-requisites required:
- Mailbox servers, or combination Mailbox and Client Access servers
- Client Access servers
Both of these server role installation scenarios are covered in this article.
