I’m having a difficult time moving all Exchange functions to a 2010 sp3 box from a 2010 that’s not even sp1. I can’t remove Public folder replica’s and I’m not sure it’s even needed as we don’t use Public Folders. I just want to make sure our GAL, OAB and all address lists are moved. What’s worse is no matter what I try, I can’t get mail to stop going to the old server. It’s not a source server on the SMTP send connector and all of it’s receive connectors are disabled. Yet, messages find their way into the old Exchange queue so I have to add it to the Send Connector to push out email.
Let me know if this is something you can fix and what your rate would be.

EPIC working like a charm 🙂 we moved completely to office365, so there was no need to keep anything. But I would like a clean un-install of Exchange 🙂

A deletion of a folder on PFServe2 is replicated to PFServer1, which is a huge issue, obviously.

If a new folder is created on PFServer1, and PFServer1 is the only replica listed, it will still show up onPFServer2, and vice versa. If i change replica members on PFServer1, those changes are replicated back to PFServer2. the PF’s are identical for folders and content on PFServer1 and PFServer2.

Does the MoveAllReplicas.ps1 change those properties somehow? All I want to do is delete a DAG with 3 servers, one of which contains PFServer2.
