How to add a 2008 R2 server as a domain controller

-

we have windows 2008 server 32bit en, domain controller in domain.

now, need install server (windows 2008r2 chn) as exchange server, need add ad ds in server, when run dcpromo in exchange server, message said " need run adprep /forestprep first", run adprep /froestprep on 2008 server before, and get the message "forest-wide information has been updated.
[status/consequence]
adprep did not attempt rerun operation."

so can't add this 2008 r2 server as another domain controller. why? anyone can me!   

hi,

 

thank post here.

 

1. if want install windows server 2008 r2 dc in windows server 2008 domain, please make sure run adprep /domainprep /gpprep command on windows server 2008 dc holds infrastructure operations master role prepare domain. if want run 1 of adprep.exe commands on 32-bit computer, use 32-bit version of adprep.exe (adprep32.exe) , if run adprep.exe on 64 bit windows server 2008 r2 server, try 64-bit adprep.exe instead.

 

2. please aware of not recommended configuration have adds role on exchange server. have reassign roles if need additional windows server 2008 r2 dc , exchange server both.

 

this exchange server domain controller, not recommended configuration
