DRAG DROP
You deploy an Active Directory forest that contains two domains named contoso.com and
child.contoso.com. You plan to deploy Exchange Server 2013 servers to the child.contoso.com
domain. You need to prepare Active Directory for the installation of the first Exchange Server 2013
servers. Which command should you run in each domain? (To answer, drag the appropriate
commands to the correct domains. Each command may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.)

Answer:

Explanation:

THE SUPPLIED ANSWER IS CORRECT.
FOR 3 STEPS USE
1. SETUP/PREPARESCHEMA
2. SETUP/PREAREAD
3. SETUP /PREPAREDOMAIN
HOWEVER THE ANSWER ONLY PROVIDES FOR 2 STEPS.
IF YOU RUN SETUP /PREPAREAD THEN THIS COMMAND CHECKS TO SEE IF THE SCHEMA
EXTENSIONS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED
AND IF NOT THEN IT PROCEEDS TO INSTALL THEM.
HENCE SETUP /PREPAREAD IS CORRECT
A TRICK QUESTION FROM Microsoft TO CHECK IF YOU KNOW HOW SETUP /PREPAREAD
ACTUALLY OPERATES.

@steaven It is confusing, but the answer in this dump is wrong for general q36: what is correct in
contoso .com
/preparead or prepareschema . If you read TechNet article: http://technet.microsoft.com/enus/library/bb125224
(v=exchg.150).aspx the correct answer is: first install the Active Directory management tools,
prepareSchema,
prepare AD

Hi can you please tell me why there are different answers in this test and Microsoft.PracticeTest.70-

For example: general q36: what is correct in contoso .com /preparead or prepareschema
PrepareSchema
Setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
To run this command you must be a member of Schema admin and Enterprise admins group.
This command should be executed from the same domain and same active directory site as Schema
Master server.
This imports 100 ldf files to update the schema with Exchange 2013 specific attributes.

Child domains NEVER have the Schema Master UNLESS you explicitly moved it there from the Root
Forest Domain (the default is the VERY FIRST DC of the Forest.)
PrepareAd
Verifies the active directory schema is updated for Exchange 2013 RTM , If not it will prepare the
active directory schema first.
Creates Microsoft Exchange container and it’s sub containers under configuration partition of the
Active directory database.
Creates “Microsoft Exchange Security Groups” OU in the root domain tree within forest and set
permissions on this OU.
Assign permission throughout the active directory configuration
Creates universal security groups under Microsoft Exchange Security Groups OU
It also prepares the local domain for Exchange server 2013
PrepareDomain
You should be a member of Domain Admins group to run this command.
You need to run this command if you are planning to deploy exchange in child domain or any other
domain within same forest.
If you want to prepare all domains within your forest so run below command and this would require
Enterprise admin permission
Setup.exe /PrepareAlldomains /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
PREPAREDOMAIN MUST BE RUN ON THE CHILD DOMAIN.
THE ANSWER FOR CHILD.CONTOSO.COM IS CORRECT
