Removing Exchange 2007 after migration to 2010.

We are trying to remove exchange 2007 from our network after migrating to Exchange 2010. I thought I copied all of the public folders to 2010, but when I try to uninstall I get an error:

Uninstall cannot continue. Database 'Public Folder Database': The public folder database "EXCHANGE\Second Storage Group\Public Folder Database" is the default public folder database foer the following mailbox database(s): EXCHANGE\First Storage Group\Mailbox Database

Mailbox Databae 1621939451

Before Deleting the public folder database, assign a new public folder database to the mailbox database(s)

I am assuming I need to remove the reference to the 2007 database, just not sure how to remove.

Thanks,

Hi Eric,

If you checked the Public folder in Exchange 2017, do you continue to have content?

Have you migrated all the public folders?It seems some publics folders are in Exchange 2007.

If you shutdown the server Exchange 2007. Everything works?

Have you tried removing Exchange 2007 DB first?

I am a little hazy on the best way to remove the Exchange 2007 DB. I have never attempted before.
