XFOR: Removing Microsoft Mail Connector Does Not Remove Dirsync Server and Remote Dirsync Requestor Objects (273347)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server
This article was previously published under Q273347 SYMPTOMS
When you remove a Microsoft Mail Connector that is configured with a directory synchronization (dirsync) server and a remote dirsync requestor, the Dirsync Server and Remote Dirsync Requestor objects may remain in the Connectors tree. All other Microsoft Mail Connector objects are deleted as expected.
When you delete the Dirsync Server object manually, the following error message may appear:
An invalid ADSI pathname was passed.
ID no : 80005000 Exchange System Manager
When you delete the Remote Dirsync Requestor object, the following error message may appear:
The requested operation did not satisfy one or more constraints associated with the class of the object.
LDAP Provider
ID no : 80072014 Exchange System Manager
CAUSE
This issue can occur if an Exchange Server administrator created these objects during Microsoft Mail Connector configuration, instead of their being created automatically during Setup.
RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, delete the objects manually and just click through the error messages.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. MORE INFORMATION
If you need to remove the Microsoft Mail Connector, first delete the Dirsync Server and Remote Dirsync Requestor objects, and then remove the connector.
