exchange schema

About this tag
The exchange schema tag covers Active Directory schema replication issues specifically related to Exchange Server updates. Recent discussions focus on a confirmed Windows Server 2025 bug where the Schema Master FSMO role hosted on a Windows Server 2025 domain controller can cause duplicate schema entries and replication failures when Exchange cumulative updates extend the schema. This leads to Event ID 8418 errors, schema-mismatch warnings, and potential outages for authentication, Group Policy, and mail flow. Administrators are advised to temporarily move the Schema Master role off Windows Server 2025 during Exchange schema changes to avoid these problems.
