Removing EV Server

Hello

I'm removing an EV server as it is no longer needed. my set-up is as follows

I have 3 EV mailbox and journal servers in the UK that all share a Vault storage Group (VSG1). and i have one in india this has it's own SQL and VSG(VSG2) and indexing and was put in as a pilot and only hosts 7 users.

since it was put in we have centralised all our exchange servers to a single site and this is serviced by the UK EV servers.

making the india based EV server redundant. as such we want to remove this from our environment

The archives in the India Vault store have been exported to PST and deleted.(meaning there is no required data in the india vault store or the india VSG(VSG2)) 

this leaves me with two questions

1. do i need to move the Indexes for the india server if the server has no users ?

2. what are the steps for removal in this case

I've seen the below article but it only talks about the need to move the VSG and indexes

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH135322

and since the VSG is empty i don't want to move it and the indexes.

 

Thanks in advance

Michael
