Hi,
When you have disabled archiving, create a backup of the EV-databases. (step 6a, or 8a)
8 stop and disable EV admin service (stops other services too)
17 backup ALL ev databases again.
As remark, why do you not upgrade to 9.05? This is the latest SP available, and has more fixes and updates.

There are some other plans in managements mind and hence there are upgrading it to 9.0.3.
Thanks you very much for your reply, Sir.

Domino archiving does not use MSMQ, so you don't need to worry about step 5. You will also need to perform step 20 through 25 from your original POA.
