Complete Removal of DAG and Database Copies

Task: Due to network latency issues I need to completely remove the DAG from the environment while keeping the databases on each individual server
Scenario:  3 Ex2010 servers located around the world (EXUS, EXEU and EXPAC).  Each have just a single database on them (DB067,DB186 and DB038 respectively).  All three have mailboxes on them.  All three are members of WWDAG.
Under the Database Management tab here's what it looks like for each database:
DB038 Mounted on Server EXUS  <--note that it's not mounted on the correct server!
DB067 Mounted on Server EXEU
DB186 Mounted on Server EXUS
Under the Database Copies tab here's the situation:
Database  Mailbox Server   Is Active  Copy Status
DB038       EXPAC                False        Healthy
DB038       EXUS                  False        Failed
DB038       EXEU                 True          Dismounted
DB067       EXUS                  True         Dismounted
DB067       EXEU                  False        Disconnected and Resynchronizing
DB067       EXPAC                False        Failed and Suspended
DB186       EXPAC               False         Failed and Suspended
DB186       EXEU                 False         Failed and Suspended
DB186       EXUS                 True          Dismounted
So, my questions are: 1) How in the name of biscuits and gravy to I get all three servers out of the DAG?  2) How do I keep the databases intact on their respective servers?  3) Can I just take the DAG out behind the barn and put it down?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Agree with Willard Martin. If you want to a DAG member, you need to remove database copies first, then you can remove the Mailbox Server from the DAG.
Here is a related article for your reference. Even though this article is for Exchange 2013, it also applies to Exchange 2010.

  • How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it.  Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple.  While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows).  You will also not be able to install firmware updates.  Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific.  You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update.  You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it.  At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive. 

  • Complete removal of iTunes and QuickTime

    If I completely remove iTunes and QuickTime, will all the songs from my music library in iTunes be deleted too? Will they be there when I install iTunes again?

    Hi Mihail,
    When you delete your installation files (like through Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel, or if you use the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility), your song files should be saved.
    As long as you don't delete the folder called "iTunes Music" (which is inside another folder above that, called "iTunes"), then your songs will be fine.
    By default, I believe iTunes saves its library in your My Documents/My Music folder, although it may be stored elsewhere. You can always go to the "Start" menu on your computer, and chose "Search" to search for your "itunes music" folder.
    Regardless, the installation files/folders are separate from your iTunes library files, so they should be safe.

  • How to completely remove Macintosh partition and assign it to Windows partition?

    I've been a mac user for over 4 years now. I own a Macbook Pro (early 2008 model). I had leopard running until a month ago when I decided to upgrade to meet with the system spec demands of many applications. I first installed Snow Leopard. Snow leopard used to auto log me out. (This is  a known bug. Check google). Then I figured I must install Lion. But Lion freezes at login screen a million times. And next I upgraded to Mountain Lion. It does not boot up at all!
    So, I have Windows 7 on my bootcamp partition but now I want to ONLY have windows on my macbook and remove mac os completely. How can I do that without reformatting/reinstalling anything?
    Thank you.

    You can do that but it is not suggested. Why because Apple writes drivers, or supplies driver, that you really can't get elsewhere and sets up the system to work better with Windows then installing Windows all by itself
    The thing to do is install OS X Clean, whatever flavor you like but the newer versions of OS X is recommended, and Nothing But the OS. No other program from Apple or any other Mac software writer. Then use Boot Camp to assign all remaining HDD space to a Boot Camp partition, leaving 10-20GBs over what OS X is using. Then install Windows.
    Then all you have to do is NEVER boot back into OS X.
    The only problem with that is the way Apple sets up the Windows partition system. Once setup you really can't fool with the BC partition, like splitting it into 2 partitions, as that may cause Windows to fail.
    Or you could just retire your old and aging Mac and buy a brand new Windows notebook. Faster, more HDD space, more memory and included a new warranty.
    Just sayin.

  • TDE and database copies in 10g

    We are looking into various encryption options for our 10g database running on AIX 5.3. As part of our development support, we regularly copy the production database files to other AIX servers, scrub the data, and create the resulting database under a different name. We are interested in what impact the encryption would have on this process, namely on bringing up a new database on a different server. We currently do not think we will want/need encryption on the copied, scrubbed databases, but we believe the database will actually come up in an encrypted state, although probably not useable because of the key/server relationship.
    Is anyone currently using TDE in an environment similar to this? If so, do you have any suggestions for things to look into further or for other options that should be considered?

  • Completely Remove Mac Mail and Re-Install?

    So I've had this problem on one of my Macs for months now. All the mail I send goes to the outbox and never sends... ever. I've trashed just about everything... I've re-done the accounts multiple times...
    It doesn't matter what email account I use, they ALL go to the outbox and never send. I have the exact same setup on a different G5 and everything works fine there.
    I'm assuming there is something corrupted somewhere in the mail program (but I've even tried replacing the broken application with a copy from the other computer... still no fix).
    So I just want to start over... I have my Tiger install discs... I don't want to just install over Mail though... I want to make sure I get rid of it totally and re-install... and hope for the best.
    How do I do this, and how do I keep what mail and save folders I have? (All the accounts correctly receive the mail... I'm just completely unable to send anything out).
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I have the exact same problem. The other problem that I also have is that when I click Mail on my dock nothing happens the Mail window never opens, so I have to go to the menu bar and click Mail>File>New Viewer Window. I have check Connection Doctor and everything is fine. I have also done Disk Utility>Repair Disk Permissions and everything is fine. The only App that is behaving like this since this morning is Mail.
    Please Help!

  • Firefox won't respond at all. I have completely removed the program and down-loaded and installed the latest version. Still no response.

    Firefox suddenly quit responding one day last week. After re-installing the program (which didn't work) I went to the website and downloaded and installed the latest version. Program does not open (respond) at all. This is on Desktop with XP. Firefox works fine on my laptop which has Windows 7. I am now using Chrome as my browser on the desktop. No problems. I am at a loss as to what happened.

    But I can't... find... it... It's not there.
    Unless you're talking about the entire Mozilla Firefox folder (which isn't what the thing you copied says,) there is no installation folder.

  • How to remove win 8 and install win 7 in bootcamp

    I want to completely remove win 8 and install win 7 in bootcamp. I followed the steps in bootcamp assistant and it appears to remove the win 8 partition. However when starting a new win 7 bootcamp partition and installation setup still thinks win 8 is being used. how do I get it to recognize the win 7 now being installed from the usb drive?

    Hi Janesdf,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are looking for Windows downgrade on your Ideapad N580.
    Before doing any changes in the system HDD partition or with Windows OS, I suggest you to create the system recovery media and then you can downgrade the OS. But you require Windows 7 recovery media.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you COMPLETELY Remove Programs?

    Is there a way to completely remove a Program and all of its traces?
    I have a program (Sorenson Squeeze) and I installed the Trial Version and it immediately says that my Trial has expired. The companies support, Sorenson, told me to remove the program and all traces of it and then reinstall and all should be well.
    In Windows you can Uninstall and do a RegEdit to get rid of everything. How do you do the same in OSX?

    EX1, EX2, DREX1. All servers are exchange 2010 14.2 build 247.5<o:p></o:p>

    The dag is configured to to communicate to all three.<o:p></o:p>
    The IP for EX1 is 192.168.100.51 - LAN, switch A; 160.100.3.51 - BACKUP, switch B<o:p></o:p>
    The IP for EX2 is 192.168.100.52 - LAN, switch A; 160.100.3.52 - BACKUP, switch B<o:p></o:p>
    DREX1 is located in another network. It is in another building connected via vpn. The ip
    for DREX1 is 192.170.100.51. There is no BACKUP network for this server<o:p></o:p>
    (These are not the actual address, but the concept is similar)<o:p></o:p>
    The dag network configuration is as follows.<o:p></o:p>
    DAGNetworkDR has a subnet of 192.170.100.0/24; Network Interface of 192.170.100.51<o:p></o:p>
    DAGNetwork01 (LAN) has a subnet of 192.168.100.0/24; Network Interfaces of 192.168.100.51
    and 192.168.100.52<o:p></o:p>

    160.100.3.51 and 160.100.3.52<o:p></o:p>
    Last Friday, 3/7/14 something happened.<o:p></o:p>
    To lead up to that, I noticed the issue because we have DPM 2010 making 15minute express
    full backups of our exchange databases when I reviewed the backup jobs, the
    exchange database backups using dpm2010 failed all weekend long starting at
    11:00pm that Friday.<o:p></o:p>
    The issue that occurred was that the database copies went to a status of Disconnected and
    Resynchronizing, and after about 30 seconds, the status would show
    Resynchronizing.<o:p></o:p>
    All attempts to resolve this with the research methods failed.  Deleting the
    logs and reseeding failed, suspending, then rebuilding failed.<o:p></o:p>
    Creating a new database worked, creating a database copy worked, but seeding the copy
    failed. All with the same pattern, a status of Disconnected and
    Resynchronizing, and after about 30 seconds, and the status would show
    Resynchronizing.<o:p></o:p>
    The database was mounted on EX2, and seeding to EX1
    DREX1 has no issues.<o:p></o:p>
    All the DAG networks were in a good status, all Green and all up.  I could ping from
    EX1 to EX2 and from EX2 to EX1 on both networks fine.<o:p></o:p>
    In the middle of the week, about 3/12/14, we resolved the issue. We rebooted EX1, no
    fix, but after rebooting EX2, it all resolved.  It did a fail over to DREX1. I think it failed to do the failover to EX1. However, when it came back up, it was happy, it was reseeding slowly. After about an hour and a half, it
    was all healthy.<o:p></o:p>
    We thought it was all good EXCEPT, on Friday night at 11:00pmish on 3/14/14, the same
    issue occurred; a status of Disconnected and Resynchronizing, and after about
    30 seconds, the status would show Resynchronizing.<o:p></o:p>
    The database was mounted on EX2 and seeding to EX1 again. I did not notice the
    issue until I performed my review of the backup jobs again on Monday.<o:p></o:p>
    Late Monday morning, my boss and I were looking at more articles, but all the same results,
    delete the database copy and reseed. Which we knew would not work.<o:p></o:p>
    I mentioned that it was strange because the networks were all up. What made us try the next
    scenarios was just "luck" I guess. I made a statement about not remembering
    which networks DAG replication took place over.  Again, we have a LAN and
    a BACKUP network.  Bother were listed to use replication, so we decided to
    disable replication over the BACKUP network in the EMC. Immediately, the
    database copies switch to healthy and started seeding.<o:p></o:p>
    Later that evening I enabled replication over the BACKUP network and it failed again with
    a status of Disconnected and Resynchronizing, and after about 30 seconds, the
    status would show Resynchronizing.  I disabled the replication over the
    BACKUP network and the database copy went back to healthy<o:p></o:p>
    The last round of windows updates were pushed to these boxes the Friday before the
    issues began, 2/28/14.  I don't believe the updates to be the issue. <o:p></o:p>
    Can anyone make any suggestions as to where to look?  It worked with the BACKUP
    network enabled to so long that is eluding me as to why the issues would start
    all of a sudden. I am also confident that the switch configuration for the
    BACKUP network has not been changed at all in at least 2-3 months.  I am
    still open to look at the config. Please help if you can.<o:p></o:p>
     <o:p></o:p>
    Lastly, this is more of a monitoring thing, if anyone can suggest a good way to monitor
    the database copies so that I can be alerted when the status changes.  We
    use WhatsUpGold 16.2 to monitor the devices.  <o:p></o:p>
    Thanks for any future assistance.<o:p></o:p>

    You don't have to enable the Replication on Backup Network.
    You should collapse your DAG network.

  • Make Passive Database Copies Active and Decommissioning Exchange 2010 SP2

    I am in the middle of tranferring Databases from Old Physical servers to New Mailbox Servers.
    My approach was to join the new servers to DAG replicate all Databases,After which I will make the Database Copies in the New Servers Active with high Preference and Decommission the old.Servers.
    I however dont know how to go about it ?

    Well, you just did describe it! 
    You dont need to change the activation preference though. Once the old databases are removed, Exchange will set the preference automatically and then you can adjust as necessary.
    Here is what I would do:
    1. Add the mailbox servers to the DAG.
    2. Replicate to the new servers.
    3. Activate databases on servers not being removed.
    4. Remove the database copies on the servers you are removing. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd298164.aspx )
    5. Remove the servers from the DAG that no longer have database replicas.
    Thats it! Very simple.
    Note that the all the DAG members have to be at the same O/S and should be at the same Exchange SP.
    (SP2 is no longer supported - Time to move to 2010 SP3)

  • Removing Pubilc folder and default mailbox database

    I have two mailbox sever in our environment, a virtual EX2010 and physical EX server 2010. We had migrated from EX2003 to Virtual
    EX2010 including Public folders. All the clients are using Outlook 2010 so we don’t need the public folders. All the mailbox have been moved to physical EX2010.
    I have used
    ADSIEdit tool and removed the public folders completely but the other
    mailbox database is still referring ( path ) to default public folder ( DB properties – client setting)
    I am not using Virtual Exchange and when I try to delete the default mailbox database I get below eroor msg.

    Can anyone guide me how to resolve these issues so I can uninstall exchange roll.

    Hi,
    Just as what Amit suggested, if you want to remove the default public folder database for a mailbox database, you can clear the value of the msExchHomePublicMDB attribute.
    Here is a related article for your reference.

  • EMC Does Not Show All Databases Copies Information on DAG - Exchange 2010 SP2

    Hi guys,
    Really need your help here, suddenly my customer complain that they cant see any information on database copies on their Active Copy DAG Exchange server, for another DAG members, the database copies information is visible. After do some readings, I found
    this related to Exchange 2010 SP1 known issue. 
    http://workinghardinit.wordpress.com/2010/09/13/emc-does-not-show-all-database-copies-after-upgrade-to-exchange-2010-sp1-still-investigating/
    But, for my environment, there is Exchange 2010 SP2. I have no idea on this issue since there is no error log thrown out from the event viewer. I already try to restart the server itself and the Microsoft Information services but no luck.

    Hi,
    Based on the description, your customers could see passive database copy information, but they couldn’t view the detail information such as state: Healthy in EMC.
    When did this issue begin?
    Please restart the AD topology service to check result.
    Since we have the information correctly on Exchange shell, please try to clear EMC cache and then open console to check if you can see database copy in EMC.

  • HT4007 I have just transferred all my raw, jpeg & tiff files into LR4 and using to opportunity to delete old raw files to free up disc space. How can i completely remove a raw file from my msc disc??

    I have just transferred all my raw, jpeg & tiff files into LR4 and using the  opportunity to delete old raw files to free up disc space. How can i completely remove a raw file from my mac disc??

    I'd be careful here: LR references files. It can copy them, like from an SD card to your hard drive, but it doesn't necessarily make duplicates. So when you say you "transferred" those files "into" LR it just means you referenced existing files. And if you delete those they're gone, unless you've made copies. LR does not import files by copying them into a managed library like Aperture does.

  • Windows 10 needs an option to completely remove Metro/Modern UI, Apps, Live Titles and Windows Store.

    The main thing I expected for next version of Windows is an to completity remove Metro/Modern UI, Apps, Live Titles and Windows Store. Microsoft does not understand the Windows 8 bad reputation and has not learned anything.

    A little Microsoft last years history:
    Microsoft en general has good operatings systems in all segments, good office and server products, before year 2010.
    The best OS that Microsoft never ended is Longhorn:
    http://www.zdnet.com/windows-longhorn-still-the-most-exciting-windows-ui-to-date-7000007363/
    http://longhorn.ms/
    Microsoft be the first on a good mobile OS: Windows Mobile. In lastest versions of Windows Mobile, i can sync all my Exchange items, including tasks and notes. Its has a good interface with a menu, a desktop with shortcuts and more. Every new version improve
    visuals with more effects, gradients, transparencies and more. Windows Mobile are far years old than iOS or Android.
    But since year 2010, Microsoft presents Windows Phone, with and ugly user interface, with less visuals, no desktop, no notifications, no apps, no app compatibility with Windows Mobile and only sync Contacts and Email. No calendar, tasks, notes. Also the
    simplicity of the Mail app makes it unuseable.
    Now, in 2014, Windows Phone can sync Calendar, but no Tasks or Notes. Less than in Windows Mobile.
    Android is new for year 2009 and mimics desktop OS's and Windows Mobile with a desktop and gadgets. In every new version of Android i see a lot of improvements and new features. I also sync Exchange tasks and with another app, Exchange Notes. Android continues
    to mimic desktop OS's now featuring Windows on a mobile OS, but Microsoft is removing desktop features in order to a limited Metro ugly interface.
    Windows Mobile had a 30% market share and Windows Phone has a 2,5% of market share.
    With this bad and ugly OS, Microsoft completity destroys Nokia.
    With this bad reputation of an ugly and unuseable OS, Microsoft decide to put all this ugly OS to the Windows Desktop OS, with less features than older Windows OS versions,
    obtaining no more than 10% of market share, compared to the more than 50% of Windows 7 and the more than 20% of Windows XP.
    Also Microsoft remove features in every new version of every Microsoft product except in SQL Server.
    Microsoft Office removed crucial features and shows an ugly UI with ugly icons. For example, Office 2013 shows me less emails on screen than Office 2010. Also the lack of constrast and the lack of ClearType make it difficult to read.
    The UI and icons in Visual Studio with the ridicolous ALL CAPS menu are higly
    criticized by the developer community forcing Microsoft to change visuals, new icons and a Visual Studio 10 Theme. But continues flat, ugly and with less features than previous versions.
    Exchange removes the Exchange Management Console and Exchange Control Panel for an ugly web interface. More functions and commands need to do now by the Exchange Powershell cmdlet commands instead of a Visual GUI interface.
    With this bad numbers and reputacion, Microsoft also puts these ugly OS on the new XBox One, a cloud console developed for a
    house living room to show TV, movies, listen music and play games. Initially forced to always connected to Internet, Microsoft was forced to remove that and the kinect due to the poor reception of a console not developed to power games users and
    with insuffient power for actual games. Actual sales data compared to Playstation4 shows a bad and dead product like Nokia Phones.
    And now, close to year 2015, with all this bad reputation and numbers, Microsoft still continues to force to an ugly, flat and simple OS with apps and cloud. I never use cloud or put my private data on the cloud.
    With even more reason never put my company or work data on the cloud.
    I do not trust the cloud, and even less
    trust in Microsoft. Ads like Scroogled,
    make me gain more confidence in Google
    and lose even more confidence in Microsoft,
    because you need to attack the competition rather than
    focus on developing good products.
    Instead i got at least the same features on a new OS, i never upgrade.
    Less appearance settings. No advanced appearance settings like in Windows 7. No Aero. No Themes. No Customizations options. Only flat and ugly design, with bad and heavy colors that makes eye strained and lack of constrast between areas on the Window of
    an application (see Office 2013).
    Less Protect System options. No Shadow Copies or Prevoius Versions. File History is unusefull.
    Less Network options. No Network map. Less Wi-Fi features. No Bluetooth File sharing.
    No desktop games.
    General ugly UI without options. I dont like FLAT.
    Why change Windows 7 with an OS with less features like Windows 8.x and 10?
    The only new is:
    Ugly Metro/Modern UI does nobody wants and solicitated this.
    Simple apps with ADS that are practically unusefull on desktop PC and more on enterprise.

    Cloud!!! Who, in their right mind, puts his own company private data on the cloud?
    Nobody wants to create a Microsoft Account or use a Store of Simple apps with ADS. Nobody solicitated this but Microsoft wahts to makes money.
    Seeing the little progress
    and development of new features including
    new versions, as
    Windows Phone 7 to Windows
    Phone 8, Windows
    8 to 8.1 and 10 shows the
    reducidad capacity and
    the current difficulty of
    development by Microsoft
    counting the numerous
    layoffs and closing of
    numerous development teams.
    Serious and professional developers never develop Windows Store/Metro-Style apps.
    They develops .NET, Windows Forms Applications, WPF, MFC, C++, etc. applications.
    That is the actual technology that people are using, learning and jobs searching.
    And what Microsoft means Modern or actually:
    “Windows Store/Phone Projects”
    is technology that never wants, nobody asked and needed for.
    I never see a decent “Windows Store/Phone Projects” or a rich client app on that technology. I only see garbage, spam, ads and its the better platform for spammers, and people who want to get my money badly and with bad ways.
    “Windows Store/Phone Projects” is the best platform for thieves, crooks, swindlers and more.
    I never develop to a simply unusefull platform whit limited technologies and a platform in which Microsoft gets 20% of my work.
    I want .NET technologies, WPF, Windows Form and to create exe files. For Mobile/Tablet platform i used .apk files that not need a store to distribute them.
    I expect from next version of Windows to create local accounts and options to COMPLETITY disable Metro and Windows Store with the restore of removed features like Shadow Copies, Backup and Restore, Aero, Advanced Appearance Settings, Expand All Programs
    in Start Menu, Games apps like Solitaire, Mineswipper, Chess Titans, DVD Maker and more removed features. If Microsoft not do this, the next version of Windows continues to be another disaster like Windows 8.x and people stick with Windows XP and 7 in order
    to think about migrations to Mac OSX or Linux.
    For all who likes and defends the new Microsoft concept, please see the actual Microsoft marketshare in all segments.
    Microsoft has to think and open your eyes
    and see that from 2010 all
    new versions of their products are inferior
    products with fewer features,
    destroying and killing the product like Windows Mobile, Nokia, Windows, XBox, etc. Microsoft needs to see the marketshare of all this new products and compare with the marketshare of old products.
    It is very serious and a lot of attention
    today that Windows XP has greater
    market share than Windows 8.x for this reason
    alone should be enough for Microsoft
    to react and change all their wonderful way
    of thinking and his philosophy like
    "Devices and Services "or the
    new" Cloud first,
    Mobile First ".
    In business, one of the main premises
    is that if a product works and sold, do not change it. Microsoft is not only changing Windows, is elimintating the sale of the 50% marketshare of Windows 7 Home Premium and Ultimate edition. And
    more, for more than 2 years, Microsoft is not developing any Service Pack for Windows 7, that is unaceptable. All of this is stupid and idot and the best things to lost confidence and trust on Microsoft.
    Microsoft is doing the all things that i can do to kill a company.
    Remember those companies, like Coca-Cola, Xerox, etc. that
    were about to go bankrupt to change
    its philosophy and strategy, which worked
    very well, and failed to get up
    again until they return to its own strategy and
    philosophy of the beginning.
