A Parent(root) domain(2003) has the first Exchange 2003 Server Installed. The second Exchange server 2003 is installed in a child domain. There is only one Exchange site. Winthin Exchange System Manager I can see the one site with the two Exchange servers. What is the exact procedure to remove the Exchange installation from the first (root) domain? Will this disrupt the second Exchange server in the child domain?
Hi there, Follow this kb: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931 Removal of the first Exchange Server in your parent domain will not cause issues for your Exchange Servers in your childs. The Schema (/forestprep) is only extended the once (it's a per Forest operations role) and will not have to be done again, and your child domain is already prepared (/domainprep) as Exchange is already installed and working. Following the above article is all you need to do.
