Exchange Server
2016 requires that you have specific software preinstalled prior to starting
the deployment process. First, you should plan for the operating system
platforms that you will be using for Exchange Server 2016. The following
operating systems support the installation of Exchange Server 2016 roles:
- Windows Server 2012 Standard
- Windows Server 2012 Datacenter
- Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard
- Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter
- Windows Server 2016 Standard (Exchange Server 2016 Cumulative Update 3 and later)
- Windows Server 2016 Datacenter (Exchange Server 2016 Cumulative Update 3 and later)
Note: The Server Core installation option is
not a supported operating system option for Exchange Server 2016 installation.
Depending on
which Exchange Server role you install, you can install different Windows
Server operating system components on a server. However, you do not need to
install these roles and features prior to Exchange Server installation because
the installation process can install the necessary roles and features
automatically.
Note: If you choose to install Windows Server
roles and features during the Exchange Server setup process, you might be
required to restart the server before Exchange Server starts installation. This
is expected behavior.
However, you
should install some additional components manually. These components, which you
can download for free from Microsoft, include:
- Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2.
- Windows Management Framework 4.0 or later.
- Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for AD DS, which can be installed with Server Manager.
- Microsoft Unified Communications Managed API 4.0, Core Runtime 64-bit.
You also should
ensure that the Task Scheduler service is enabled and running on the server
where you plan to install Exchange Server 2016.
