I was trying to install Exchange 2010SP1 MailBox role with a previously existing Exchange2003 environment. And was getting following error;

Mailbox Role
Failed

Error:
The following error was generated when “$error.Clear();
$name = [Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.EnableMailbox]::DiscoveryMailboxUniqueName;

Couldn’t resolve the user or group “domain.local/Microsoft Exchange Security Groups/Discovery Management.” If the user or group is a foreign forest principal, you must have either a two-way trust or an outgoing trust.

The trust relationship between the primary domain and the trusted domain failed.

Finalizing Setup
Cancelled

Exchange-2010-SP1-Mailbox

Solution:

After tying few stuff I got it fixed by removing Discovery Mailbox user a/c created as a prepareAD  & restart the Exchange setup.
