Public folders replicas - 8.Feb.2009 12:13:21 PM

Hello all,

I have two servers running XCH2007. One of them will be decommissioned. I need to remove Exchange 2007 from it. I have already uninstalled client and hub transport roles successfully. I need to uninstall Mailbox role but, of course, I run into the Public Folders replicas problems.
Both servers had identical replicas. I then applied the removeallreplicas.ps1 on the server that is to be decommissioned, but only some were removed.
I read Anderson Patricio's article about Built In Scripts part1. I found there the command ./removereplicafromPFrecursive.ps1.
I am not to familiar with the right syntax for it. I have included the screen shot of the replicas that are listed after I run this command; get-publicfolderstatistics
I want to remove those. What should be the right script and syntax to use?
Thank you so much for your help.

You may use PFDAVADMIN which is a graphical tool to manage public folders.

You may use PFDAVADMIN which is a graphical tool to manage public folders.

If you choose to go with PFDAVAdmin, please remember that it needs .NET Framework 1.1 and this is usually not installed on Exchange 2007 boxes. Whatever you do, do NOT install .NET 1.1 onto your Exchange 2007 box since it will brake som .NET 2.0 registrations.

Install .NET 1.1 Framework onto, let�s say your Admin Computer, and execute PFDAVAdmin from there.
