Remove an Edge Subscription

  • Article

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010

You can remove an Edge Subscription. After you remove the Edge Subscription, synchronization of information from Active Directory to Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) stops. All the accounts that are stored in AD LDS are removed, and the computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed is removed from the source server list of any Send connector. You will no longer be able to use the Edge Transport server features that rely on Active Directory data.

Note

To completely remove the Edge Subscription, you must run this procedure on the Edge Transport server and on the Hub Transport server. To run this procedure on the Edge Transport server, you can only use the Shell. To run this procedure on the Hub Transport server, you can use the EMC or the Shell.
