Hi,
I thought that you already had 4 Exchange 2010 servers installed in the domain?
Are you running the command in a site where there are global catalog servers?

Hi,
If you already have existing exchange 2010 server you can't / shouldn't use the /OrganizationName:domain switch in the preparead setup command. Try without that.
