| Hi
all
Does anyone know why
the documentation suggests that adprep /domainprep be run on the DC holding
the IM FSMO role? I heard a rumour to the effect that it was
only because that DC is likely to be less busy than the other DCs, but I'd
like to know for sure.

Bernard Aric (sic) from HP.
(Cheers, Aric! )

Yep, that was him. Drat, dunno why I had Luther in my head as being his
first name.

| Guido is doing that for me, I'm quite sure. Any time anyone mentions IM to
me, I want to add them to my contact list. I'm much like a teenage little
girl in that regard (and scream like one too, when frightened! :-)

IFM is an odd abbreviation of the Infrstructure Master role. I think IM is
more typical.

| Heavy German accent? I suspect that it was Andreas Luther.... (and looks
nothing like Guido....)
And - it might have been DEC as Andreas was there for the Identity
Management (read:MIIS) portion of the conference.

nowhere - must have confused the acronym with that used for Install From

| Andreas actually teased me with this at the second DEC in US (must have
been 2003 in Scottsdale, Arizona), as I also wondered why the IFM would
be required for this role. So after a good discussion about the IFM's
functions it was clear there was absolutely no technical requirement
that adprep /domainprep be performed on the IFM FMSO ;-)
The only reason the IFM was "chosen" to perform this "special" task is:
they had to ensure that the domainprep will only be performed on a
single DC in a domain and all the other FMSOs already had many more
special tasks than the IFM - this is why the domainprep was bound to be
executed on the IFM FSMO.

| Oddly enough, this exact topic came up in a dinner conversation at Tech
Ed this year.Ώ] Luther...oh heck somebody remind me of his last
name...had apparently quizzed people with this one at a previous
conference (DEC?), only to utimately reveal that the answer was "You
know how people always ask you what the IM FSMO does? Well, now you can
tell them that it's responsible for running /domainprep."
Ώ] Please hold the jokes about having dinner conversations about Active
Directory internals until the end, please. :-)
