Hi Guys
I want to install OCS 2007 on a X64 server, i have some questions.
1.) i already have exchnage 2007 on this server, when i install ocs 2007 it converts IIS to 32 bit mode, then i converted it bak to 64 bit mode.
will OCS 2007 server still work without any problems on this server ? please post if u guys had any problems
2.) my 2nd option was to put a virtual server for OCS will it effect exchange if put a virtual server ?

The management tools don't initiailly work on 64-bit platforms, you have to execute the .msc fiel with a -32 command argument.

Will this be used for a production or test-only environment?Monday, September 8, 2008 6:12 PMModerator

In that case I would neither co-locate OCS and Exchange on the same server nor install a virtualization service on the host.
I would highly recommend that you install OCS on a separate box. Co-locating Exchange and SQL service on the same host is not really a recipe for success.
