Break cluster after all resources lost but servers still alive?

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can point me to some documentation to resolve this problem I have. Basically I'm trying to create a lab of my production environment to test migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2013. I used Disk2VHD to get a VM of one of my DCs, the two nodes
of my SCC Mailbox Servers, and my two CAS/HUB servers. I was able to get the DC and CAS/HUB servers working but haven't had much luck with the Mailbox servers. None of the cluster resources are available in the lab and the cluster service wont start.
It looks like in order to break the cluster I need the cluster itself to be working to delete the resources and uninstall the servers. I was hoping someone knows of a resource that shows how to break the cluster when you can't bring the cluster up
at all. Then I could establish a new cluster with a test database and test my migration procedure.
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I am not fully understanding your environment. Do you virtualize your production environment to the test environment. The cluster settings were applied to the lab environment but there is no
real cluster setup on the lab?
Is there any error event ID in the application log?
Thanks,

    I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do                             

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

    How do I get iMessage to activate, I have read through all the instructions but it still says activation unsuccessful?

    Are you using a supported carrier? Do you have a plan that permits text messaging?
    The iPhone uses a 'silent' SMS message exchange with Apple's servers in the UK to activate. If you are not using a supported carrier, and/or your account is not provisioned properly for an iPhone, the activation may not be able to complete.

  • I wanted to host my iWeb pages on Dropbox.  I followed all the instructions but it still doesn't work.

    I guess in October of 2013, Dropbox changed their program so you don't need a public folder to place your files in.  I followed the instructions on numerous youtube and google result sites on how to do this.  I thought I followed all the instructions but it still doesn't work.  I downloaded Dropbox and configured it as instructed.  I created a domain at .tk and when I put the URL in my browser, I see that .tk does go to my dropbox index html but it is a blank screen.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

  • TS4009 My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I have done all I can but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.

    My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter.  I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
    I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.  I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone.  Can anyone help me?
    Thanks!

    Only you can decide what's critical to back up.  One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
    You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup.  If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong.

  • Can't open my photo library after upgrading to iPhoto 11.  is it possible to load iPhoto 9.0.1 after loading 11?  have followed all other instructions but it still won't let me open iPhoto.

    can't open my photo library after upgrading to iphoto 11.  Is it possible to download iphoto 9.0.1 after installing '11.  Have followed all the other instructions and am in a loop which doesn't allow me to access iphoto or my photos.

    when iphoto wouldnt open we read the trouble shooting info and it said that we may have needed to download 9.0.1 if we had an older version.  We obviously didn't download it before the upgrade and wondered if it would cause problems or indeed solve the problem if we downloaded it now!
    When we try to open iphoto is says:
    To open your library with this version of iphoto it first needs to be prepared
    To prepare the library use the iphoto library upgrader available from Apple.
    We have downloaded this twice now and it still sends us this message when we try to open iphoto. 

  • Resource deleted, but user still has resource linked when viewed in debug

    Hi all,
    I'm facing an issue on unlinking user accounts on a deleted resource. I deleted a resource from the Resource Action tab but still able to see the resource linked to users from the Debug page. I tried to search for users under the Find Users tab, but the resource doesn't appear in the list for selected resource. I looked at the debug page for users on that resource and the resource still shows up under the <Services> and <ResourceInfo> tags.
    Can anyone share their expertise/solution on how to rectify this? Do I have to do a bulk action of unlink to unlink/unassign the resource from the user and if so what would be the command?
    Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!

    I feel there is no need to refresh each and every object just for this.... as and when there would be any operation on the user object the unwanted references would go away...
    Still if you want to to do it then you can use the refresh users (search the forum). I know there is one simple XML which you can execute from the lh console or there is also a workflow which you can run to do the job...

  • Macbook pro(intel based) all apps hang but mouse still work

    My Macbook Pro(intel) running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.1 has started hanging after the last OS upgrade.  All apps stop responding but the mouse pointer contines to function, though mouse click doesn't respond as all apps are not responding.
    Any ideas or suggestion?

    Yes, I have this problem as well. Although it only happens once I have resumed the computer from standby/sleep mode.
    I haven't contacted Apple yet as it has only happened again recently and I put the first time down to a once off. I really hope this is not a hardware issue as I am already suffering from airport related kernel panics.
    Anyway, from browsing the internet somebody mentioned that disabling "accidental input" in System Preferences/Keyboard & Mouse may solve the problem. I have done that and it hasn't happened again yet. Although, this is not an ideal solution.
    Please let me know if you hear of any developments. I was hoping that switching to Mac might get rid of all my computer troubles (previously XP) but all I've had is problem after problem .

  • Help! iPod Touch deleted songs after connecting to iTunes but songs still show up in iTunes display

    I connected my iPod Touch 64GB (iOS 5.1.1.) to iTunes (12.0.5.00) on my MacBook Pro (10.10.2) in order to add a couple of podcasts.  Unfortunately, now only the podcasts show up on my iPod display -- they're the only audio media on the device. My 6500 songs, all my playlists are gone from the iPod (and iPod display) as well. However, on the iTunes display on my computer, when my iPod is connected, all my songs and playlists are there.
    Hoping I can get some help figuring out what went wrong and how to get the songs back on my iPod so I don't have to manually add them all from a backup external hard drive (I don't keep them all in iTunes nor all the backup files on my computer's hard drive to save space).
    You can see in the photo below on the left side of the display, 'On My Device', all my playlists remain. On the main display, all my music is there -- it's just not on the actual iPod itself. You can also see at the bottom of the screen, the iPod capacity bar, which shows that 56.80 GB is free, suggesting the songs are in fact, deleted from the iPod.
    Can anyone assist? Any thoughts as to why the songs & playlists still show up in iTunes if they are in reality deleted from the iPod?
    Thank you for any info or assistance, it's very much appreciated.
    Derek

    And I've now tried connecting the iPod to an older Macbook running iTunes 12.0.0.140 and I'm getting the same thing -- the songs and media shows up under 'Devices' on the left, but they are not actually there. Trying to double click on them brings up the symbol. Wondering how the 'ghost' effect of them showing up in iTunes can happen if they are no longer on the iPod itself.
    Thanks again for any thoughts, suggestions, or assistance.

  • HT1338 I have updated my new MacBook Pro for HP Photosmart All-in-One, but it still will not scan - it will print, but will not scan. How can I fix this?

    I have installed the updates for my HP Photosmart All-in-One c309a.  It prints, but will not scan.  Tells me to update - I did that, but still won't scan.  Any suggestions to make the scanner work?
    This all worked perfectly with my old 2008 MacBook Pro.

    Have you tried scanning from Image Capture or Preview?
    A current driver is shown to be available for Mavericks (auto-downloaded):

    But many people have found that manufacturer scanning control software doesn't work. They have to use the Apple-provided software.
