Hello ITPros!
I have a DAG with 2 servers for Exchange 2016 and with lack of atention I licensed on of them with na Enterprise key when I was looking for the standard Edition.
Is not in production yet but it will be soon.
As for what I looked for I need to remove this server and install a new one. Because I'm not that experienced with this I ask if the steps I should take are these (looked online but there is a lot a information that is different):
- Install a new server and install Exchange
- Add the server to the DAG
- Configure database copy on the new server
- Remove the database copy from the server to remove
- Remove the server from the DAG
- Uninstall Exchange 2016
With these steps is everything removed form the AD regaridng this server or there is the need to do some clean up? I'm not sure that we will install this server again to have 3 servers but in that case I would use a new name, just in case something under ADSI -- Configuration stays there.
Online I found that we need to remove data from ADSI but when the servers dies, not uninstalling it.
Thank you again! I'm having a perosnal course sponsored by my company on Exchange but your vídeos will help trying to achieve 70-345.
Have a great day!
