If you installed Exchange 2003 and you want to restart or shutdown w2003 server, it takes about 25 to 45 minutes when it does.
The problem is in Exchange 2003 itself. MS knew it even in the beta stage but did not correct it. <_<
You can speed up the shutdown by shutting down the exchange services before you shutdown w2003 server.
If you do not like to do this by hand, you can write a script and let w2003 server do it automatically.
How?
Start gpedit.msc and open your script in computer configuration - windows setting - scripts (startup/shutdown) - shutdown.
My script looks something like this:
Net Stop "Microsoft Exchange Information Store"
Net Stop "Microsoft Exchange Management"
Net Stop "Microsoft Exchange MTA Stacks"
Net Stop "Microsoft Exchange Routing Engine"
Net Stop "Microsoft Exchange System Attendant"
You can edit it yourself in notepad and place it in windows - system32 - grouppolicy - machine - scripts - shutdown as a .cmd file.
If you shutdown w2003 you will see that the extra script will come by during shutdown.
That?s all :P
