Missing Exchange tabs in ADUC 2

Hello,

I had replaced a DC recently. Since the replacement of the DC, I do not have any Exchange tabs in ADUC.

The old DC was a GC, and I specified the new DC as a GC. The old DC held all FSMO roles. I transferred all FSMO roles to the new DC. I had to bring the old DC back online temporarily to get the Exchange tabs back. Not quite sure what the deal is here.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
 
The Exchange tabs only normally display on a server that has Exchange running on it. To get them running on a system that doesn't have Exchange installed, you need to install the Exchange Management tools, like Reynolwi said.

To install the Exchange System Management Tools, insert the Exchange Server 2003 CD-ROM, click Exchange Deployment Tools, and then click Install Exchange System Management Tools Only in the Welcome to the Exchange Server Deployment Tools dialog box.

Thanks guys. I just figured that one out. Coming back to answer my own post, and found it was already answered! Nonetheless, I'll give the feedback as you both were correct. Thanks!
