Exchange 2013
Hi Experts ,
I have 2 Exchange servers , both running Exchange 2013 in the same domain.
1st Server is Srv3 which was the first Server setup and running Exchange 2013, the 2nd Server is Srv6 this is the 2nd Server running Exchange 2013.
I want to decommission Srv3 and make Srv6 my main and only exchange server.
I have moved my mailboxes across to Srv6 and have purchased a comodo payed cert and this is also installed on Srv6.
Srv3 has a self signed cert installed.
I am looking for some help on decommissioning Srv3 and making Srv6 my primary and only exchange Server.
if I turn off Srv3. I can access my Mailboxes and I can sent mail as now going trough Srv6, but can't receive mail or get to my e-mail remotely (owa).
if I try and setup the receive connector on Srv6 to be the same as Srv3 but  it won't let me.
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated
Thank you.

Hi Ivan,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
Did as you suggested in the above mail and that worked a treat.
Had to make a few changes with some of the connectors still pointing to the old server but changed this to the new server and all is good.
The old server is now turned off and all looks o.k.
Just on decommissioning the old Server is just a matter of uninstalling the old box and is there anything to watch out for ?
Where do the system mailboxes sit as I only transferred the users for the old server ?
