INTRODUCTIONThis article describes how to roll back an unsuccessful
migration from Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 to Microsoft Exchange Server 2003
or to Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server.
You can upgrade your
organization from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2000 or to Exchange 2003 by joining
your Exchange 2000 computer or your Exchange Server 2003 computer to an
existing Exchange 5.5 organization. If this upgrade operation is unsuccessful,
you may want to remove Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 and roll back to Exchange
5.5. This article describes how to roll back the upgrade operation to a point
before Active Directory Connector (ADC) was installed and configured.
Important After you perform the procedure that is described in this
article, all remnants of Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 are removed from the
organization, including ADC. You must reinstall and reconfigure ADC and
Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003. Do not perform these steps if any other
Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 computers exist in the organization. If you do
so, all Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 servers will be removed from the
organization.
