Verifying that SchemaPrep completed successfully before turning back on outbound replication on the Schema Master in AD is always a good idea. Depending on the version OCS/Lync that you are running, there are differeing ways to check the schema state.
OCS 2007/R2
The quickest way is to run the following LCSCmd after running the SchemaPrep step:
LCSCmd.exe /forest /action:CheckSchemaPrepState
If the report shows everything as successful, you can feel confident that everything completed properly.
Lync Server 2010/2013
The best way in Lync Server to check that SchemaPrep completed successfully is to run the Get-CsAdServerSchema cmdlet in Lync Server Management Shell. If you get the following result back:
SCHEMA_VERSION_STATE_CURRENT
The SchemaPrep step should have completed successfully.
But, if you want to go that extra step, you can look in ADSIedit.
In ADSIedit, under the Schema Container, look for the ms-RTC-SIP-SchemaVersion. Opening the properties, look for the "RangeUpper" attribute. Check the list before for the correct value for your environment:
LCS 2005 - 1006OCS 2007 R1 - 1007OCS 2007 R2 - 1008Lync Server 2010 - 1100Lync Server 2013 - 1150
If you see the correct value for your environment, you can be sure that schema prep completed successfully.
