Exchange 2010 Migration from 2003.  Remove exchange 2003 from organization.
http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/removing-first-exchange-2003-server-part1.html http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931 When looking at these two articles about how to remove an exchange server from the organization they suggest to do the following: Replicate all public folders to another server Rehome the Offline Address Book folder Change the server that is responsible for generating the Offline Address List Rehome the Schedule+ Free Busy folder Rehome the Organization Forms folder Designate another server to be the routing group master When I researched migration articles they only mentioned recreating the offline address book and replication of the public folders. Which I have done already. The server that I am migration from is not the first server in the exchange organization, only a member exchange server. Do I have to?: Rehome the Offline Address Book folder (or does creating an address do this already)? Do I have to do these als?o: Rehome the Schedule+ Free Busy folder Rehome the Organization Forms folderTreadstone

Hi, You can use this article to remove the last legacy server from the organization: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb288905(EXCHG.80).aspx If you have no Outlook 2003 or older clients you don't need to rehome the schedule+ free/busy folder or the offline address book folders (these can be deleted). If you are not using organizational forms this folder can be deleted. Leif
