looks good two suggestions
I would suggest that you keep the server in place or near by for about a month before formatting it. Also make sure that you can restore old files to the new server. -----Original Message----- From: Crosby, Tim (Sarcom) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2001 3:06 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Removing server from site We currently have 2 servers in our site, both running NT 4, SP6 and Exchange 5.5, SP4. We are about to upgrade one of the servers (Server1) to Windows 2000, Exchange 5.5 and would like to eliminate the other (Server 2) altogether. I followed the procedures in Q189286 XADM: How to Delete a Server from a Site. Specifically, I have gone through all public folders and made sure that they have Server 1 as the home server. I have removed the replication from Server2. I have also moved all mailboxes off Server2 onto Server1. Tonight I am going to go through and make sure that all distribution lists show Server1 as the expansion server. Are there any other steps I should take before removing Server 2 from the site? Besides backup of course? List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
