Remove Downed Exchange Server from First Administrative Group
- by Campo
I had a server die. It is gone forever.
It is still listed in the servers folder of the first administrative group in the Exchange System Manager.
When I click "all tasks Remove Server" I get the following error:
The Server "SERVERNAME" cannot be removed because:
-One or more users currently use a mailbox on this server.
These users must be moved to a mailbox store on a different server
or be mail disabled before uninstalling this server.
Facility: Exchange System Manager
ID no: c103f492
Exchange System Manager
Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
I cannot access the mailbox stores anymore and I do not care about the lost mailboxes. We deleted the inactive and old users as well. So I am stumped on this one. I just need to remove the old machine.
THANKS!
