Dear all,
I know there are quite some threads regarding this issue. But I've been looking at all of them w/o any solution for my problem. Here we go...
I've followed all instructions for a Exchange 2003 to 2010 transition. All went fine to the point I'm trying to uninstall Exchange 2003 via Control Panel/Software/Remove. So far I did the following:
1. Move mailboxes to Exchange Server 2010 using Move Mailbox Wizard or Powershell => successfully
2. Rehome the Offline Address Book (OAB) generation server to Exchange Server 2010 => successfully
3. Rehome Public Folder Hierarchy on new Exchange Server 2010 Admin Group => successfully
4. Transfer all Public Folder Replicas to Exchange Server 2010 Public folder store => successfully
5. Delete Public and Private Information Stores from Exchange 2003 server => successfully
6. Delete Routing Group Connectors to Exchange Server 2003 => successfully
7. Delete Recipient Update Service agreements using ADSIEdit according to
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb288905(EXCHG.80).aspx => successfully
8. Uninstall all Exchange 2003 servers => fails with "Error code 0X80072030 (8240): There is no such object on the server"
I used the following articles while migrating to Exchange 2010:

and several more.
I looked into these forums regarding my problem and came up with:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283089/en-us
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931
I investigated the following possible reasons:
- homeMDB attribute (no references to my Exchange 2003 anymore)
- HomeMDBBL attribute (as described here
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrmigration/thread/f0e3edd7-34e5-46b8-8061-1991aaffc30f) (no Information Stores available anymore as they have been successfully removed)
- msExchHomeServerName attribute (all pointing to my new Exchange 2010 server)
- the "famous" postmaster issue as described here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283089/en-us (pointing to the new Exchange 2010 server)
In order to investigate all attribute related issues a utilized a VBS script resulting in an Excel sheet I was easily able to filter:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SET objRootDSE = GETOBJECT("LDAP://RootDSE")
strExportFile = "C:\temp\MyExport.xls"
strRoot = objRootDSE.GET("DefaultNamingContext")
strfilter = "(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=User))"
strAttributes = "sAMAccountName,msExchHomeServerName,homeMDB,legacyExchangeDN,givenName,sn," & _
"initials,displayName,physicalDeliveryOfficeName," & _
"telephoneNumber,mail,wWWHomePage,profilePath," & _
"scriptPath,homeDirectory,homeDrive,title,department," & _
"company,manager,homePhone,pager,mobile," & _
"facsimileTelephoneNumber,ipphone,info," & _
"streetAddress,postOfficeBox,l,st,postalCode,c"
strScope = "subtree"
SET cn = CREATEOBJECT("ADODB.Connection")
SET cmd = CREATEOBJECT("ADODB.Command")
cn.Provider = "ADsDSOObject"
cn.Open "Active Directory Provider"
cmd.ActiveConnection = cn
cmd.Properties("Page Size") = 1000
cmd.commandtext = "<LDAP://" & strRoot & ">;" & strFilter & ";" & _
strAttributes & ";" & strScope
SET rs = cmd.EXECUTE
SET objExcel = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application")
SET objWB = objExcel.Workbooks.Add
SET objSheet = objWB.Worksheets(1)
FOR i = 0 To rs.Fields.Count - 1
objSheet.Cells(1, i + 1).Value = rs.Fields(i).Name
objSheet.Cells(1, i + 1).Font.Bold = TRUE
NEXT
objSheet.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset(rs)
objWB.SaveAs(strExportFile)
rs.close
cn.close
SET objSheet = NOTHING
SET objWB = NOTHING
objExcel.Quit()
SET objExcel = NOTHING
Wscript.echo "Script Finished..Please See " & strExportFile
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I did find is that all my Exchange enabled users have an legacyExchangeDN attribute that is still pointing to my Exchange 2003 organization:
e.g. "/o=First Organisation/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients/cn=Administrator"
Could this cause any problems?
Now the in depth look into my "Exchange Server Setup Progress.log":

I did search for:
- Error code 0X80072030 (8240)
- ScPRQ_ServerIsNotRUSResponsibleServerInTheNonEmptyOrg
Nothing so far. In case some more information is needed just let me know.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I absolutely don't know how to remove my Exchange 2003. Manual removal is not an option.
