Clean Server Information

[Guest Newbie]

Hello,

 

We have server01 and server02. Server01 died two days ago, so we installed

new server03. Everything is working fine. Except the event viewer will show

some error messages regarding server01. i.e. DNS, File replication serveice...

 

How can clean up the server01 information?

 

Thanks

What was server01? A DC?

 

Is server02 also a DC? Where are your FSMO roles hosted?

 

Did you sieze FSMO roles (if needed) and do you still have a global catalog

server (GC) on a DC?

Then you need to seize them on server02 using ntdsutil ....
