Decommission old ADFS 2.0 system
I performed a migration of AD FS from a 2.0 to 2016 system, both using WID. I performed a side by side install, exported the config from the old and imported from the new. The Federation Farm name is the same for both and my cut over was a success.
I want to decommission the old 2.0 system, but because of my process their share the same Farm GUID in AD, so I cannot clean up as articles suggest. I am hesitant to uninstall the product and WID database only because I am not sure if it will talk to AD and i cant risk the 2016 system having an issue.
My thought was to simply to remove the server from the domain and shut them down. I know it is not the clean way but seems the safest way. Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks.
