Hi there,
I’m in the middle of an AD rename; it has Exchange in it, and I’ve just read this in the XDR fixup instructions:
Is this just because MS do not support/recommend Exchange on DCs, and running dcpromo on Exchanges?
I ask as I had dcpromo’d the Exchange down to a member server before I read this, and I’d like to know whether, since the dcpromo down was successfull, it is in fact necessary to include the fairly hefty disruption in creating a new mail server, or if it is in fact sufficient that the Exchange is no longer a DC. The exchange is no longer mentioned in DNS/AD as having any DC attributes, so I don’t see why this isn’t sufficient.
Thanks,
Will
