What are the Steps to be taken care before decommisioning Exchange 2010

I migrated from exchange 2010 to 2013 with DR.

Hopefully its working fine.

Now i am planning to decommission my exchange server 2010. It was powered off 15days back.

Could you please tell me the process of decommissioning exchange server 2010.

Also what are the things need to check before decommisioning..

thanks..

Hi vino,

Thank you for your question.

If the migration has been completed, message flow and Exchange services are running without any problems. And it has powered off 15 days by your state, we could uninstall Exchange 2010 directly by control pane.

If there are any issues after we uninstall it, welcome to our forum to ask for help.

If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 

Best Regard,

Jim
