    I am installing a Lync servr EE in a domain contoso.com

    forest preparation ..OK 

    domain preparation ...OK 

    get-csaddomain fail (5 warning) 

    "

    Note: when i check csadministrator on a given user, i notice that it has not enough permissions. 

    seems like permission inheritence dont work!

    Mefteh,

    I think that this look slike you're running the schema prep - right?

    So - you need to be logged onto the Lync server with SCHEMA ADMIN/Enterprise Admin rights to do this.   It looks as if you have not done this.

    Can you confirm?  If you have these rights, then the prep should work pretty flawlessly.

    Hi,

     

    I suggest referring to the following tips to check the issue:

     

    1. Please try to manually verify schema replication first:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412822.aspx

     

    To run schema preparation, you must be a member of the Schema Admins group in the root domain and a member of the Enterprise Admins group on the schema master.

     

    2. Verify that forest preparation was successful.

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398825.aspx

     

    To run Forest Preparation, you must be a member of the Enterprise Admins group.

    After running Get-CsAdForest, LC_FORESTSETTINGS_STATE_READY should be returned.

     

    3. If the above steps are successful, please try to run domain preparation and verify it again:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425868.aspx

    To run this step, you must be a member of the Domain Admins group.

    After running Get-CsAdDomain, LC_DOMAINSETTINGS_STATE_READY should be returned.

    Please feel free to let us know the exactly result.

     

    Best Regards,

    Kent

    Hi kent, 

    thank you for your replay. 

    i have done as we described (steps 1 and 2 passed fine) bur still have 4 warning  when execute get-csaddomain. with the message i mentionned in my initial post. 

    i tried to give exeplicitly permission to csadministrator on a given user ( edit its security setting) and i was able to enable it, it can also connect to Lync. 

    the probleme is permissions inheritence. 

    Should i user grant-csoupermission to give permission to all OU in my domain? haw can i "force" pemission propagation in all AD user objects? 

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412970.aspx 

    haw can i ckeck if my ad islocked-down or not ? 

    thanks in advance

    Just another Update 

    t was trying to disable ad forest (disable-adforest) and disable-csaddomain) 

    but i recieved one warning when execute disable-csadforest 

    Group security identifier (SID): S-1-5-21-917253991-808314923-4276756315-512   23/03/2012 15:46:46

             Action: Check Groups   23/03/2012 15:46:46    
             Warning: The universal group "" is not ready.   23/03/2012 15:46:47   Warning

         Command Status: Command processing is complete.   23/03/2012 15:46:47    
         Command Status: Command run is complete.

    i am not able to find that group to delete it manually perhaps. my idea was to have a clean domain then to enable forest and domain .

    Hi,Meftech_W

    Would you please give more details about your Active Directroy service and Lync topology?

    Are your Lync deployment in a locked-down Active Directory environment?If so you must run the Grant-CsOuPermission cmdlet on each container or OU that has User or InetOrgPerson objects for which permissions inheritance is disabled.Details you can check http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412970.aspx 

    If you would like to remove Lync reference in AD and start from scratch you can refer to the following article which posted by one Microsoft MVP Randy Wintle.

    http://blog.ucmadeeasy.com/2010/11/09/lync-server-2010-active-directory-references-and-how-to-remove-them/ 

    Hope these useful!

    B/R

    Hello Sharon, 

    thak you for your help:)

    i tested the Grant-OuPermission cmdlet but that dont give any positive results, test-csOu Permission reterned u true answer but still not able to see activated user or activate new Lync  users. 

    I am reading about AdminSDHold,  that can be a possible reason sicne permission are not inherited on users objects.  

    Any help or advice aroud this tpoic? 

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    1. Have you tired to give users read-access permissions on containers in the forest root domain?

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398425.aspx

    2. The command is Grant-CsOuPermission not Grant-OuPermission. Would you try it again? Please check if all required steps have been performed.

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412970.aspx

    3. Would you please tell us details about your AD topology and Lync topology?

    Regards,

    Kent

    Hi,

     

    1. Have you deployed OCS before on this forest?

    2. Please check the requirements for AD infrastructure carefully:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398760.aspx

    3. If the issue persists, I recommend referring to link Sharon provided to remove Lync reference in AD and start from scratch.

    Hi,there,

    Do you have multiple domain controllers or AD sites?If so please make sure the replication between difference DCs and Sites has completed,you can use DCDiag to analyze the replication and Sync issue,also you can check the Active Directory Service in event viewer to see if there are some sync or replica issues.

    Hi,

    Is your forest in 2003 mode and also your domain?

    1. Get-CsAdForest Results?

    2. Get-CsAdDomain Results

    3.Try  Enable-CsAdDomain -Domain domain1.contoso.net

    3. Check the permissions set by domainprep from this link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398742.aspx

    can you try to enable CS Domain again with

    Enable-CSAdDomain -Verbose -Report "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\1\Enable-CSAdDomain-[2012_04_03][21_09_31].xml"

    And Opening the new log file C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\1\Enable-CSAdDomain-[2012_04_03][21_09_31].xml

    To see whats happend or do you have the old logfile from the enable-csdomain.

    Hello,

    Any idea around yhis topic ? 

  • Friday, April 06, 2012 10:00 AM
     
     

    Hi,

     

    Would you please let me know your AD topology? Is it single forest, single domain or single forest, multiple domains?

    If you are trying to deploy Lync in sub domain, please try the following command to test the issue.

    Enable-CsAdDomain -Domain SubDomainName

     

    If the issue persists, I suggest you refer to the video to deploy Lync.
