Warning Before you remove a Microsoft Exchange Server 2003
server from a production environment that has multiple
servers in the site, make sure that you know all the roles
that are held by the server. Take steps to move those roles
to another server before you follow the steps in this
article to remove the Exchange Server. For example, the
server may hold special roles such as site folder server or
routing group master, or the server could be listed as a
bridgehead server on a connector such as an SMTP connector
or a routing group connector.

If you do not transfer these roles to another server before
you remove the Exchange server, you may experience adverse
effects including the following:
Mail flow may stop if the server is a messaging bridgehead
server.
Free/busy problems may occur if the server is the site
folder server.
Mail flow may be adversely affected if the server is the
routing group master, because the link state data for the
remaining servers in the site is not updated for each other
and the link state data for the remaining servers in the
site is not updated to other sites.
Other adverse effects may occur depending on the role the
server holds.
If this Exchange server is the only server in the site,
role transfers are not an issue.
