When I run the Get-MailboxDatabase | ft Name,PublicFolderDatabase
I get one DB showing up I then run the command below I get a message Remove-PublicFolderDatabase -Identity "Public Folder Database 0501558777
The public folder database "Public Folder Database 0501558777" contains folder replicas. Before deleting the public fol der database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database. For detailed instructions abou t how to remove a public folder database, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=81409&clcid=0x409. + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (Public Folder Database 0501558777:ADObjectId) [Remove-PublicFolderDat abase], InvalidOperationException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 7832B3C3,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.RemovePublicFolderDataba se
I can;t find a second DB anywhere and am not sure where to go an dhow to proceed at this point.
If yo can provide some direction that would be great.
Thanks,
Greg
Can you post the output of:
Get-MailboxDatabase | fl Name,Pub*
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-MailboxDatabase |fl Name,Pub*
Name : Mailbox Database PublicFolderDatabase : Public Folder Database 0501558777
After 3 more restarts I was able to get past this point. Now hitting a roadblock at the Remove-WindowsFeature AD-Certificate
Remove-WindowsFeature : Failed to initialize. At line:1 char:22 + Remove-WindowsFeature <<<< AD-Certificate + CategoryInfo : OperationStopped: (:) [Remove-WindowsFeature], COMException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DiscoveryFailed,Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Commands.RemoveWindowsFeatureCommand
Trying to move past this and get the server fully decommissioned in the next few days.
Any suggestions?
Run 'Import-Module ServerManager' before you start 'Remove-WindowsFeature'
I have done that 3 times so far.
