windows 2008 R2 schema

We are planning to upgrade our AD schema to the 2008 R2 version (we are
currently on the 2008 version), all our DC's are 2003 and we are at 2003
domain and forest functional level.

Will this have any problems with exchange 2003 or our last remaining NT
server (once the NT server has gone we plan to upgrade all our DC's from 2003
to 2008).

Hi ALL

You had no problems with 2008 schema , right ? There are 3 more ldfs
released with 2008 R2 (Sch47.ldf) .These ldfs has no direct relation with
Exchange 2003 or NT.

Have a nice day

It shouldn't be an issue, but I strongly suggest you test in your lab first.
Otherwise your production environment is just another test lab.

Hello ALL,

It shouldn't have an influcence, BUT as already said, a lab environment is
the best option to be sure.
