Attached the public folder store to the mailbox store (had to correct the path Created a new public folder store and a new Default OAB. It did leave the administrative group, so I trashed that too through adsiedit in hopes the situation would become 'cleaner'.īecause of issues we had then, I trashed the public folder store on the 2010 server as well, as well as the Default OAB. Anyways, I deleted the public folder store on the 2003 server throughĪdsiedit, then I could remove exchange. Not having a proper way to trash the public folder is somewhat cumbersome, so far for every migration. Quite fed up with the replication, I canīackup the public folders to PST in 5 mins, and restore them in the same time.
Since then I've been fighting with the public folders etc to remove the old exchange (it won't uninstall w/o removing the public folder database and it won't remove even an empty store unless it's replicas are moved). Failed with the error code The endpoint is a duplicate (1740) Unable to register the MSExchangeAB RPC interface. Highly doubt that caused it, but since then ExchangeAB won't start and it will return this error: Then came HP, which replaced the motherboard and the power backplane and maybe some other components, as the server occasionally just powered off. During this time, exchange (2010) operated fine, already had migrated the offline address book and the mailboxes after having waited a day or 2 for the public folders. The newly created empty store did show the default folders in 'Public Folders' (and under Public Folder Instances too).
Which is odd.Īnyways, I deleted the public folder store (that is the files) on the 2003 server so it would create an empty store. Shared addressbooks, none of them have more than say 30MB of data in the PFs.Īlso noteworthy, whilst the 'Public Folder Instances' folder showed folders in all 4 cases, the 'Public Folders' folder did not. None of our customers use public folders extensively, usually just some
In all 4 instances (4 different migrations) the public folder replication never completed. For the fourth time (sbs 2003 -> sbs 2011 migration) I could not replicate the public folders.
