Hi all,

I am going to use transition mode for upgrading to Exchange 2007. WE have
one single forest with empty root and one child domain which holds users and
exchange servers. In terms of prep, the list steps are right?
1) run Setup.com /PrepareLegacyExchangePermissions on any domain
controller(w2k3 SP2) of each root and child domain (infrastructure master?)
2) run setup.com /prepareschema on the schema master role DC of root domain
3) run setup.com /preparead on any domain controller of each root and child
domain (infrastructure master?)

Thank you.

You only have to run /PrepareLegacyExchangePermissions and /PrepareAD
once.
Dont forget to the run /PrepareAllDomains.

Thank you for your help.

You mean on root and child domain once? Do I have to run it on the
infrastructure master?

> Dont forget to the run /PrepareAllDomains.
If I run setup.com /prepareAD on the root and child domain once, Do I have
to run setup.com /PrepareAlldomains?

Thank you.

"Do you have a single forest, domain, site? OK, run the setup from the GUI
and you should be fine. Do you have multiple Domains? Ok, then run
/PrepareAD for the forest and /PrepareDomain for any other domains (or
/PrepareAllDomains). "

Is the above statement true?
