Exchange 2013 Domain Prep

[FN-GM]

Hi,

 

We are an Exchange 2010 site, i am doing some prep to the domain ready for an Exchange 2013 upgrade.

 

Just want to check i am 100% correct first, the second one just want to be sure it wont overwrite existing stuff.

 

First we do a setup /PrepareSchema

 

Then setup /PrepareAD [/OrganizationName: ]

 

Last setup /PrepareDomain

 

Thanks

Just looking at this here: Exchange 2013 CU1 Setup into Exchange 2010 Org – Quick Guide | emailmigrations.com

 

I don't need to specify a name for the org but another site said i do.

setup /PrepareDomain is not required to be run in the domain you run setup /PrepareAD in,

[sukh]

no need to specify org name again.

Only need to do setup /ps for schematic and setup / prepare ad. No need to specify organization name.
