Exchange 2003: Change Recipient Update Service Domain Controller
Posted on 2012-12-28
We have a single forest/single domain and are in the process of decommisioning a 2003 domain controller that both the Exchange 2003 Enterprise and Domain Recipient Update Services are pointing to. We would like to repoint the Recipient Update Services to a 2008 R2 domain controller. Is there anything to keep an eye out for or any gotchas when performing this change? Thanks.

Just browse and change it to new DC. Make sure DC is up and running when you are doing this change. Rest is simple.
Make sure you have a good backup before doing this. There are no gotchas but you have to be very careful because you have to do this using ADSi Edit: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvradminlegacy/thread/23782bd7-9a92-452b-b327-41809bbc4dbf
I second Amit to simply change the DC for RUS from the ESM and not get into ADSIEDIT until its no otherway
Hopw you have moved the FSMO roles and ensured that your exchange can work with Windows 2008 server ??
Did you check event 2080 on the Exchange Box and also it appears in the DSAccess tab

We haven't moved the FSMO roles yet but are planning to before decommisioning the DC. FSMOs are not relevant for changing the DC the RUS's are pointing to, right? All the DCs in the forest are GCs.
