Access is Denied error 0x80070005 when publishing Lync Topology

This error may be encountered when the user account publishing the topology does not have required rights. In order to successfully publish, enable, or disable a topology you need to be logged in as a user who is a member of the RTCUniversalServerAdmins and Domain Admins groups. A common problem is the user does not belong to the Domain Admin Group. IT departments rarely grant this level of permission’s to a system integrations company or consultants. So the way around this is to request “Delegate Setup Permissions”, refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412735.aspx

Note: The command is Grant-CsSetupPermission -ComputerOU -Domain. Pay special attention to the OU, since it can be multiple OU’s deep. So if your Lync servers and in Servers>Communications>Lync OU (Listed from top down in Directory) then the command would be Grant-CsSetupPermission -ComputerOU “OU=Lync,OU=Communications,OU=Servers -Domain
