How to Convert Enterprise Vault cluster to standalone
Hi,
How to convert EV cluster (MS cluster), to standalone machine? Is that even possible?
I dont think you need to reinstall windows?
Surely it would be something like
1. Uninstall Enterprise Vault
2. Remove the clusters from Windows via command line
i.e. 'cluster node myClusterNode /forcecleanup'
or 'Remove-Cluster -Cluster myClusterNode -CleanupAD -Force'
3. Restart the server
4. Change the MSMQ path and ensure that it starts with the correct permissions
i,e make sure that NT SERVICE\MSMQ is the owner of the paths for MSMQ storage
5. Ensure the DNS points to the new standalone server
6. Install Enterprise Vault
7. Run the configuration and do a repair
8. Copy back over any custom files
