Is there any expected white paper like this one for developing an Exchange 2010 SP2 in a multi tenant enviroment?. We are waiting the publishing of this document to start the development of this kind of platform becouse we are still working with Exchange 2007.

Hi Greg,
We currently run the Exchange 2010 SP1 in /Hosted mode. It's nice that Microsoft has put out a whitepaper for a migration to SP2 but it's very dissapointing that we would have to build a new Active Directory (again)...
Kind Regards,
Nils

@ Francisco - The guidance we published at blogs.technet.com/.../exchange-2010-service-pack-2-and-hosting.aspx is the document you need. We are not going to produce a step-by-step guide as it's really impossible to do so in a meaningful way. You need to build the solution to meet your needs, and that will be unique to you. Or buy a solution. Those are the options.
@ Nils - I appreciate the feedback, and understand a cross forest move isn't easy, but do hope the guidance helps.

Wow. Build a whole new forest just to migrate from SP1 to SP2 hosting methods, AND you lose functionality in the process. It is quite unbelievable that Microsoft would introduce an entire ecosystem and then abandon it all in the course of a Service Pack. All I can say is, "Wow."
