Ah thanks.
 
So the recommendation should be, run domainprep in any domain that has GCs that may possibly be used by Exchange. That makes sense to me as that is a real requirement.

It's so that the GCs in the root domain are available to DSAccess.

Why? I have read this before and couldn't pick up a reason for it other than "just do it...".

And you should always DomainPrep the forest root, irrespective of whether it contains Exchange servers or recipients....

It doesn't matter in which domain you run ForestPrep, so you might as well run it in the domain in which you're installing the Exchange servers.  You must run DomainPrep in any domain in which Exchange servers or recipients will reside, which usually means every domain in the forest.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Forest prep/domain prep in a MT root Domain

Hey everyone, long time reading here....I'm confused as I'm new to AD and doing my research for our conversion......so here is my question we are gong to have an MT root domain and a sub ( if that the correct term) domain where we are going to put exchange, let call the root domain "AD.sdccd" and the sub domain admin.
 
What is the proper procedure for running Forest prep and Domain Prep? From all my reading I don't think I run forest prep on the sub domain but do run domain prep on the MT root and on the sub domain. Am I correct....
