Thanks, all. I'll heed the advice about keeping the old box around awhile.

I have done this twice recently and between the Technet Articles and Ed Move server document. I had no issues went pretty smooth other than a powersuppply that decided to let the smoke out of it. But not an exchange issue. -----Original Message----- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 28, 2001 2:21 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Removing the First E5.5 Server in a Site I never experienced any pitfalls, but let me offer a piece of advise. Turn the server off for a week or so. Examine your event logs, look for issues, etc. When you are 100% satisfied that you are good, then remove it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Bill Lambert Sent: Friday, September 28, 2001 12:03 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Removing the First E5.5 Server in a Site Hello all...I'm new to the list and relatively new to Exchange. Nice to see a list with some humor! My environment is a small, single NT4 domain. I've purchased 4 new servers and want to retire the existing boxes. E5.5 runs on one of the old boxes and was the first server in the site. I have installed E5.5 on a new server in the same "site". I haven't moved any of the mailboxes to the new server. BTW, all servers are NT4, Post SP6a rollup. Exchange is SP4. I've gotten the articles from TechNet regarding removing a first server and plan to follow those instructions. My question is, has anyone done this before? And if so, are there any pitfalls I should be aware of? Thanx.
