I would think you would run the setup /forestprep and setup /domainprep since this is for exchange upgrade and not AD upgrade.

Subject: [THIN] Changing Schema master

Hallo, 



I want to upgrade Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2003, during installation I get warning 
âsetup must extend the active directory schema and/ or create organization 
objects in the active directory.

 For more information I have domain controller server2003 on domain, Active 
directory are upgrade for windows 2003.

To prepare active directory for exchange 2003 I ran;

ldifde -i -f inetorgpersonprevent.ldf -v -c DC=X "dn path for forest root domain"

Inetorgpersonprevent.ldf used from windows 2003 CD, 



I get error â0 entries modified successfullyâ during importing directory from 
file Inetorgpersonprevent.ldf



When I ran LDP.exe on schema master and search for mangled LDAP display name 
attributes.

I got the following enteries..

***Searching...

ldap_search_s(ld, "CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=com", 2, 
"(ldapdisplayname=dup*)", attrList,  0, &msg)

Result <0>: (null)

Matched DNs: 

Getting 3 entries:

Dn: CN=houseIdentifier,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM

1> canonicalName: Forestdomain.COM/Configuration/Schema/houseIdentifier;

1> cn: houseIdentifier;

1> distinguishedName: CN=houseIdentifier,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM;

2> objectClass: top; attributeSchema;

1> name: houseIdentifier;

Dn: CN=labeledURI,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM

1> canonicalName: Forestdomain.COM/Configuration/Schema/labeledURI; 

            1> cn: labeled

1> distinguishedName: CN=labeledURI,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM;

2> objectClass: top; attributeSchema;

1> name: labeledURI;

Dn: CN=ms-Exch-Assistant-Name,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM

1> canonicalName: Forestdomain.COM/Configuration/Schema/ms-Exch-Assistant-Name;

1> cn: ms-Exch-Assistant-Name;

1> distinguishedName: CN=ms-Exch-Assistant-Name,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=Forestdomain,DC=COM;

2> objectClass: top; attributeSchema;

1> name: ms-Exch-Assistant-Name; 



I compare contents of inetorgpersonprevent.ldf with the attribute above,  I 
think that I have to do with only last Dn: selected on red.. I think that I can 
change the CN= ms-Exch-Assistant-Name to msExchAssistantName, that is it.



I am very careful to make change on schema master, if is going wrong then I 
have serious problem, before making any change, I want to make backup of schema 
master, is backup of system state will be enough to restore schema master 
configuration to old state?



May be somebody have to do with same problem or like it a little.

Any advice will be welcome,



Thanks already,

Avien
