LYNC: How to remove OCS Conference Dial-In from LYNC when OCS is decommissioned

Hi

I did a mistake and have decommissioned OCS systems, when I have forgot to move dial-in access number to LYNC.
The old access number is deprecated, since we use a new number on the LYNC and it works fine.
But, the old number still shows under "find a local number" which is somehow not hygienic.

The Get-CsConferenceDirectory PS lists me the following:

Identity             : 1
ServiceId            : UserServer:LYNC.domain.com
TargetServerIfMoving :
Id                   : 1
Fingerprint          : 4a72adaf-5ded-406b-b226-5015225200b3

Identity             : 3
ServiceId            : BackCompatSite-UserServices-1
TargetServerIfMoving :
Id                   : 3
Fingerprint          :

The Identity 3 is the one to be removed.

Do anyone has any ideas how to resolve this situation?
Thank you in advance

This worked for me.

 

Set-CsDialInConferencingAccessNumber –Identity <Existing Dialing Conf> –ScopeToSite

 

Note: <Existing Dialing Conf> is the “good” entry.

No need so complicated;

I resolved the issue by simple;

created a new Lync conference dialin phone # is identical as old OCS phone # that you want to delete.

Wait for awhile, when you see the magic from the dialin web page, the old OCS phone actually gets replaced with new lync conference #, all old OCS information is gone!

Now you can delete it , or do whatever you want...

Problem resolved, no need Powershell or AD search anymore...

I had the same problem by delete the dialin access number in OCS before run move-CsApplicationEndPoint. The set-csdialinconferencingaccessnumber -scopetosite  methode can only mask the problem for the site, but if you want to see the access number from other sites, you need to use -scopetoglobal parameter, which will display the deleted access number again.  Here is what I did to remove it completely.

1. Open Lync client, tools, Dial-in Conference Settings, find the region for the deleted access number.

2. In Lync Power Shell, run get-CsDialInConferencingAccessNumber -region "Region from step 1", you will see some warning "Cannot find the contact object associated with the entry for line URI "tel:+xxxxxx".

3. Assign the "region from step 1" to a dial-plan in the Lync Control Panel, Voice Routing.

4. Go to Lync Control Panel, Conferencing, Dial-in Access Number, create a new Access Number to match the display Number, Line URI, Primary Language.  The SIP URI can be any unique string.

5. run PS command set-CsDialinConferencingAccessNumber -Identity "sip:xxxxx" -scopetoglobal,  Here identity use the one created in step 4.

6. run the same PS command in step 2, you should not see the same warning as step 2, and will display the info for the access number created in step 5.

7. Delete the Dial Access Number you created in step 4, and run PS command in Step 6 to verify it is deleted. wait for a few minutes, you should not see the dial access number you want to remove from the local access number listing.
