Implications of removing and re-adding SharePoint 2010 server computer account from/to an AD Domain

It will get a different SharePoint GUID when you re-add it. Whatever stems from that new GUID will be determined by how integrated it is and what resources are looking for a GUID versus looking for the FQDN.

I've done this once, in the past, in a SharePoint 2007 farm.  Nothing broke.  But, it was a plain farm with no customizations.

If you are going to do it, run the config wizard and remove it from the farm first.  Then remove/readd to domain.  Run the config wizard and add back to the farm.

iamozymandias: Are you referring to the GUID assigned to the SharePoint server in the Config database?  I'm not actually wanting to remove the server from the SharePoint farm, I only want to remove the computer account from the domain and re-add it.

Achilles:  I'm running a single server farm, can I remove it via psconfig with only one server?

Removing and readding the SQL box makes me nervous.  I do not have experience with this.

any way you could set up a test VM, make it a stand alone server, and test?

Sorry for the confusion...single SharePoint server connecting to separate SQL server...

Am working on setting up test environment, but hoping to save time by getting the answer here.

And just to clarify, I don't think that we need to delete the computer account from the Domain Controller, just remove the server from the domain (via the client) and then re-add

Confirmed that removing the computer from the domain and re-adding it (not deleting the computer account) does not have any ill effects.
