In our lab I’m trying to install an Exchange 2010, on a W2k8 r2 64bit (physical hardware). I would like to join it to our Exchange 2003 Org.
Lab settings:
Single DC, this is the FSMO server, also the domain exchange account is in Enterprise and Schema Admins groups.
Two Exchange 2003 servers with 600 mailboxes.
On the new Exc2010 server prerequistes have been installed:
.Net 3.5.1
Office Filter Pack
NetTcp port set to auto
Import-Module ServerManager and Add-WindowsFeatures installed.
I’ve tried both Typical and Custon Installations, the Readiness Checks runs.
Organization Prereqs, Completed with a Yellow !
Warning:
Setup is goimng tp prepare for Exchange 2010 by using Setup /PrepareAD. No Exchange 2007 server roles have been detected….
This looks like a standard msg.
The next three completed successfully with Green checks
Mailbox role Prereq: Completed with Yellow !
Warning:
If MS Outlook 2003 is in use, you should replicate free and busy….
Again, this looks like a non-show stopper.
Continued with the Install. It stops at the Org Preparation, with error msg.
