Delete a non-existing Enterprise Vault server

[MichelDeschenes]

Hi everyone,

How would one delete a server that no longer exist? If I try to delete its vault store group, I get RPC server not available (which is the case as the server no longer exist).

I figured I'd do it through SQL but there seems to be so many links everywhere that I'd prefer if there was some sort of guide to delete an evault server through SQL.

Thanks!

Michel

I do the following:

In SQL

Find you server in the ComputerEntryTable and note its ComputerEntryID

Remove the VS Partition from the PartitionEntry Table
Remove Vault Store from the VaulStoreEntry Table
Remove VaultStoreGroup from VaultStoreGroup Table

Remove the server entry from StorageServiceEntry 

Table

Remove the server entry from ShoppingServiceEntry 

Table

Remove the server entry from TaskControllerServiceEntry 

Table

Remove the server entry from IndexRootPathEntry 

Table

Remove the server entry from IndexServiceEntry 

Table

Remove the server entry from ComputerEntry Table

Jobs a good one...
