Windows Server 2012 and Exchange

No server core support for Exchange 2013?

Exchange 2013 is not supported on server core, however it's easy to turn Windows 2012 server core into server with a GUi by adding the User Interfaces and Infrastructure features.

A German guide what you need to do, to install Exchange 2013 Beta on Server 2012 is available at my homepage www.fabian-niesen.de/.../vorbereitung-fur-die-installation-von-exchange-2013-preview-unter-windows-server-2012-rp.html

It was written for Public Preview of Server 2012, but the stepts are the same.

I need to konw why Microsoft take action for the products

compatibility?

I also found a very detailed document about the deployment of exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 at stephan-mey.de/exchange-2013-whitepaper

i also found two cents next to my house:)

How much time will it take for this Updates? I must do a new installation of Exchange 2010 in the next days and would like to use Windows Server 2012.

I am also deploying a new server within the next week and would like to use Server 2012 and Exchange in a production environment....either Exchange 2010 or 2013.

tried installing exchange 2013 on pre-rtm edition of windows 2012 and with rtm edition and always the same problem. Setup never finishes step 8-9 out of 15 steps. i will wait for the rtm exchange 2013. just too much pain at the moment(yes i carefully followed all the detailed instructions on how to install exchange 2013)

Exchange 2012 SP2 supports Windows 2012 as Domain Controller?

Thanks
