That will work. You could also just enable change notification on the site link 
and you'd get intra-site replication convergence across the site link.

Thanks,

Subject: Combining Sites

We've brought up paired T3's between our 2 sites, and we have failover to other 
T3's with other carriers for redundancy.  As inter-site traffic levels are very 
low, we want to collapse the branch site into the main site.  There's a single 
DC out in the branch.  We want to do this for replication performance and to 
have a single site to present to Exchange 2010 for our DAG/mailbox servers.

In checking on TechNet it seems the process would be:


1.     Move the remote DC into the main site in AD Sites and Services.

2.     Assign the IP subnets from the branch site to the main site in Sites and 
Services.

3.     Delete the branch site object in Sites and Services.

Is it this simple?  Would the systems and PCs in the branch all need to be 
rebooted?
