Removing Exchange Server
I've setup the new Exchange Clustered Servers Os 2008 and Exchange 2007.
initially we had 1 single box server ( Os 2003 and Exchange 2007) running all the servers roles. ow we have setup the clustered mailbox server and 2 CAS/Transport.
Now I want to remove the old Exchange Server from the infrastrucutre. I've stopped all the services to make sure that no one is connecting to this server.
what is the ebst way to disconnect this server from the existing running setup.

Run Setup.com /mode:uninstall from the Exchange CD or installation files on the Exchange server you want to remove.
