Hi
all

We had
removed an old DC using metadata cleanup.  However, I still see errors
referring to the removed DC in the event logs of the current DCs.  Digging
through ADSI Edit, I found the old DC in CN=System, CN=File Replication Service,
CN=Domain System Volume (SYSvol share).  I believe that I can just delete
the object, but I would like to hear from someone who has done this
before.

Help?

ThanksRuss

Go ahead and delete it. Delete it in Sites and Services as well as in the
Domain Controllers OU if it's still there. Then look for traces of it in your
DNS zone and nuke any reference to it.

If you look at the
Microsoft document on Metadata cleanup it states this as a step:



Use ADSIEdit to delete the FRS member object. To do this,
follow these steps:


a.


Click Start, click Run,
type adsiedit.msc in the Open
box, and then click OK




b.


Expand the Domain NC container.




c.


Expand DC=Your Domain, DC=COM, PRI, LOCAL, NET.




d.


Expand CN=System.




e.


Expand CN=File Replication Service.




f.


Expand CN=Domain System Volume (SYSVOL share).




g.


Right-click the domain controller you are removing, and
then click Delete.




Make sure you clean up
DNS!

Thank you very much.  Right after I sent this - I
reread the document.  I guess this was a "DUH" moment!
