I don't *think* so. It will attempt the same schema changes. William

What I am wondering is would it cause irreparable harm if you accidentally run setup with the /forestprep switch on a forest that had already been prepped? In our test environment we were rebuilding an Exchange server. Now there was already an Exchange server in the environment (so we had done /forestprep when we installed that one) so I didn't need to do it again when building this most recent one. But without thinking I did. The rest of the install seemed to go fine, but now the new servers Information Stores won't mount. So I am just wondering if it's because I ran the forestprep a second time or a different, yet unkown, reason. I am not hugely concerned. Though rebuilding the test environment would be an bit of a pain, it wouldn't be the end of the world. I am more just curious as I haven't been able to find any info from MS on this.
