No, it shouldn't have. Don't touch'em. Leave them alone. Pretend you don't know they are there.
From: Dave Vantine [mailto:dvant...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, May 25, 2012 10:29 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Old Exchange Admin Group I am planning my migration from Ex 2007 to Ex 2012. I have run the Pre Deployement Analyzer on my 2007 server and there no issues were found. Ever since migrating from 2003 -2007 when I run the EXBA it alway show errors specific to the old Ex 2003 Admin Group which still shows up. I have just ignored these knowing that the errors are showing because there are remnants of the old 2003 Admin Groups. When I run ADSIEdit I see the following entries for the old and new admin Groups CN=Services CN= MS Exchange CN=AD Connections CN=Creative Computing Inc CN=Address List Containers CN=Adressing CN=Administrative Groups CN=CREATCOMP (Old 2003) CN=Adv Security CN=Folder Hierarchies CN=Polices CN=Routing Groups CN=CREATCOMP CN=Connections CN=Servers CN=Exch Admin Group (FYDIBOHF2) CN=Adv Security CN=Folder Hierarchies CN=Routing Groups CN=Exch Routing Group (DWBGZM) CN=Connections CN=Servers CN=EX2007SRV When the 2003 server was removed all of the approprited steps were followed as per serveral articles on removing the last Ex 2003 server. However, when I tried to unistall the 2003 software with the Exchange CD it actually would not remove it. I ended up having to call PSS and they assisted me in manually removing it. Should the 2003 uninstall have removed these objects from the AD schema? Can I simply delete these objects directly without causing any other issues that would effect the currently running EX 2007 or adding the EX 2010 that I will be migrating to. -- Thanks Dave Vantine --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
