Hi guys.
We have a exchange 2010, a DC let say A. We created a new DC, renamed the old DC A to DC B. and the NEW DC was named DC A. The domain name remain the same. was only a hostname change
After that the exchange wont start the service and wont mount the database. I dont have the exactly information of the event logs, I will try to get it leater.
But the exchange is failing to communicate with the DC, kind of he is looking for the OLD and original DC1. and we cant delete the exchange from the domain controller because if fail to connect with the exchange.
we are thinking first to try to restore the communication between DCs and Exchange. then 2nd, force to remove the exchange in the DC. but then try to restore the mail database from the exchange and move it to a new exchange installed from the scratch. It is not a production environment yet and the database only have empty mailboxes.
any suggestion about how to recover it?
thanks
