Server Crashed
I haveserver that was running Exchange 2007 and Great Plains. The server crashed and we were able to recover GP, but not the Exchange server. Exchange is fully removed at this point except for information in Active Directory and maybe someplace else. WHen I try to install it, I get a message "The Exchange Server is in an inconsistent state" which is obvious because it is not longer there. What can I do to get this fully uninstalled without having to rebuild the server as this would make the accounting folks very unhappy. Thank you in advance for you help. Rachel Moreaux

Hi Rachel,I'm guessing your trying to install Exchange with the same name as before? Since exchange has not been removed from AD you can do a Setup /m:RecoverServer http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123496(EXCHG.80).aspx This should help. -Marc
