Module Strategy
Use the following strategy to present this module:
!"
Introduction to DesigninganExchange2000ManagementandOperations
Plan
The purpose of this topic is to provide an overview of the four plans that
comprise a managementandoperations plan—the change plan, operations
plan, support plan, and optimization plan, which correspond to each of the
remaining topics in this module. Begin by defining service solutions and IT
service managementand providing examples of each. Then, briefly discuss
each of the four plans, and also the importance of documenting all plans and
changes.
!"
Designing a Change Plan
Explain the function of a change plan, and then describe the three service
management functions that are used to implement the plan: change
management, configuration management, and release management.
!"
Designing anOperationsPlan
Explain the function of anoperations plan, and then describe the five
functions that should be included in anoperations plan: system
administration, monitoring and measurement, security administration,
network administration, and maintenance.
!"
Designing a Support Plan
Explain the function of a support planand then describe the three functions
that the plan includes: problem management, disaster recovery, and service
level agreement (SLA) implementation.
!"
Designing an Optimization Plan
Explain the function of an optimization plan, and then describe the three
functions that the plan includes: capacity planning, cost management, and
contingency planning.
Delivery Tip
An alternative method for
teaching this module is to
use the diamond slides as
talking points and simply
provide high-level
information on each sub-
topic, rather than going
through the module page-
by-page.

Designing an Optimization Plan
As an Information Technology (IT) professional, you must ensure that all IT
service solutions, including those provided by Microsoft
®
Exchange 2000, are
aligned with the business needs of your company. You must take a strategic
approach to creating a sound managementplan that accommodates IT service
management and its four subordinate plans: the change plan, the operations
plan, the support plan, and the optimization plan.
After completing this module, you will be able to:
!"
Describe service solutions and IT service management functions, and
explain how these relate to the four plans that make-up a managementand
operations plan.
!"
Design a change plan.
!"
Design anoperations plan.
!"

Topic Objective
To provide an overview of
the module topics and
objectives.
Lead-in
In this module, you will learn
how to design an
Exchange 2000
management and

Overview of the ManagementandOperationsPlan
Process
!
Documenting Plans and Changes
Before designinganExchange2000managementandoperations plan, you
must understand two important concepts: service solutions and IT service
management. Service solutions are the capabilities or business solutions that IT
provides to a company, while IT service management is the process by which
these solutions are implemented.
IT service management is cyclical in nature and includes four distinct plans that
run concurrently and that culminate in the design of a managementand
operations plan. Once you have a high-level understanding of the operation and
management process, it is important to understand how to create and maintain
system documentation.
Topic Objective
To introduce the concept of
service solutions and IT
service management, and to
provide an overview of the
management and
operations plan process.
Lead-in
Because a management
and operationsplan is made
up of four distinct plans, it is
important to gain a high-
level overview of the entire
process.

Service Solutions
Service Solutions
Well-defined service management functions provide consistent policies,
procedures, standards, and best practices that can be applied to any IT service
solution.
Service Solutions
Service solutions enable you to design IT services that meet your company’s
business goals. Some examples of service solutions include messaging solutions
and data storage solutions.
Messaging Solutions
As a messaging solution, Exchange2000 extends basic messaging functionality
to provide enhanced client application and server functionality, such as:
!"
Interconnectivity with other messaging systems.
!"
Enhanced security.
!"
Multiple stores for both mailboxes and public folders.
!"
Recipient and storage policies.
!"
Access through various client applications, including:
•
A Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) client, such as
Microsoft Outlook
®
.
•
A Web browser.
•
A Microsoft Office application, such as Microsoft Word.
Topic Objective
To provide some examples
of service solutions and IT
service management
functions.
Lead-in
Before designingan
Exchange 2000
management and
operations plan, you must
be aware of the service
solutions that you can
provide by using
Exchange 2000.
Delivery Tip
Mention to students that
other applications—and not
only those that provide basic
messaging functionality—
may require a management
and operations plan.
4 Module8:DesigninganExchange2000ManagementandOperationsPlan
Data Storage Solutions
As a data storage solution, Microsoft SQL Server
™
2000 combines database
functionality with data analysis to enable you to create business solutions, such
as:
!"
A technical support call-logging database that, in combination with data
analysis, tracks problems and resolutions, and also provides insight into the
enterprise’s overall technology structure and its possible vulnerabilities.
!"
Data mining that assists in uncovering hidden patterns and predicting future
trends.
!"
E-commerce solutions that can be used in conjunction with Microsoft
Commerce Server to provide Internet-based functionality, such as the ability
to store, query, and maintain the security of Web data.
IT Service Management
IT service management functions facilitate such processes as adding, removing,
or upgrading an IT service or its components. Examples of IT service
management functions include:
!"
Technical support functionality
!"
Problem management
!"
Contingency planning
!"
Configuration management
!"
Change management
!"
System administration

Each of the remaining four sections of this module explores one of the four
plans that make up a managementandoperations plan: the change plan, the
operations plan, the support plan, and the optimization plan.
Designing a Change Plan
Because both users and day-to-day business operations are affected whenever a
new service solution is deployed, designing a change plan to manage change is
crucial to the project’s success. Although designing a change plan is the first
step in creating anExchange2000managementandoperations plan, it should
be implemented throughout the entire life cycle of the project. An effective
change plan must address the following service management functions:
!"
Change management
!"
Configuration management
!"
Release management
Designing anOperationsPlan
An operationsplan outlines the standards, processes, procedures, roles, and
responsibilities that are necessary to maintain the required levels of service
within a company. This plan includes the following functions:
!"
System administration
!"
Monitoring and measurement
!"
Security administration
!"
Network administration
!"
Maintenance
Topic Objective
To provide a high-level
overview of the plans that
make up a management
and operations plan.
Lead-in
Creating a managementand
operations plan involves
developing four plans:
changing, operating,
supporting, and optimizing.
6 Module8:DesigninganExchange2000ManagementandOperationsPlan
Designing a Support Plan
A support plan outlines the standards, processes, and procedures needed to
track and resolve each problem as it arises. This plan includes the following
functions:
!"
Problem management
!"
Disaster recovery
!"
Service Level Agreement (SLA) Implementation
Designing an Optimization Plan
An optimization plan outlines the methods for achieving better performance
from the current system. This plan includes the following functions:
!"
Capacity planning
!"
Cost management
!"
Contingency planning
[...]... following three service management functions are used to implement a change plan: !" Change management !" Configuration management !"
