face any problem related to which I had changed in my AD sites & services.

To be honest I see no value in this creation, unless Microsoft has some
built in reason in SMS. We run SMS 2003 (We previously ran 2000) and never
had this requirement. It appears to be just a documentation definition.

Why don't you repost this in sms newsgroup. I'm curious now to know why
Microsoft would even mention this.
