Exchange 2007 to 2013 migration clean up
We have just recently completed our email migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. I would like to know how to clean up Enterprise Vault without removing something that I might need. We are unning EV 11.0.1. Guessing I would think that I would removed the Ex2007 server as a target. Remove the Archiving Task for the Ex2007 server (does this remove the msmq's). I'm not sure of what else should be done.
first remove the tasks that point to your 2007 servers then remove the targets. the MSMQs will have to be cleaned up manually so be careful when you do that.
In regards to the MSMQ, I've done in the past:
Verify all queues are empty (= 0) set backupmode
Stop EV-services
Remove all MSMQ's
Start directory and admin service.
Start shopping service
Start indexing service
Start storage service
Start taskcontroller service
after a few minutes (I used 10) verify MSMq's have been recreated.
