Hi all, So, here is my environment. single domain AD forest with a main office and two remote offices. An exchange server setup at each office as a standalone server with all three in the same organization. at the two remote offices the exchange server is also a DC. AD is 2003.
so, one office got shut down. I migrated all mailboxes off of that exchange server and went to uninstall exchange. It coughed up wanting an install CD in the middle. I pointed it to the exchange folder and it gave an error 0XC1037986, but then continued the process, said it finished and asked to reboot machine. Upon reboot, Exchange is now missing from add/remove programs, but seems to still be there. services are loading and I can still see it in ESM. Any guidance on how I really should get rid of this now? I need to get rid of exchange, and also demote it from DC and eventually re-purpose the box. My main fear is causing some issue with exchange replication or oab in my exchange organization. I don't know if there is anything else I need to fear? Thanks for any help Bill
