Ok here's something: Checking this out while ROOTDC1 is in the root of the forest, the schema master is actually SUBDOMAINDC1 (seems weird). I have VMs of ROOTDC1 and SUBDOMAINDC1 but neither od the "DC2" servers.
Roles: Schema master: SUBDOMAINDC1 Domain naming master: ROOTDC1 RID: ROOTDC1 (for root), SUBDOMAINDC1 for subdomain) PDC: ROOTDC1 (for root), SUBDOMAINDC1 for subdomain) Infrastructure: ROOTDC2 (for root), SUBDOMAINDC2 (for subdomain) GC: ROOTDC1, SUBDOMAINDC1 Where do I look to fix my issue?

And doing that...no, I am not! In my sandbox I have cloned 2 of our 4 production DC's - one is a forest root machine and the other is a subdomain DC. Am I possibly missing a critical role master?

When I run the deployment wizard and try to extend the schema it tells me it can't complete the command because I am not in the schema admins group....oohh, but I am! One slight twist is I am using an account from subdomain.nwea.org that is in schema admins group in nwea.org, but as that account is in schema admins it shouldn't matter. Anyone run into this?
