Recently, we had two servers with DP roles, to be removed. But, I could not do a clean uninstall as they were already down.
I removed the DP role from the Console, but when trying to delete the server, I got this error:
The server “\\<server_fqdn>” cannot be deleted because it contains the following site system roles:
Component server
I remember installing PXE role on it and then removing it.
Resolution:
1. Make sure all the roles apart from Component Server and Site System are removed.
2. On the Primary Server open regedit, go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Components\SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER\Component Servers\OFFLINESERVERNAME
Under Components/each sub key there will be a value called Deinstallation Start Time.
This indicates how long server has been trying to reach the DP.
Change this to 1.
3. Stop and restart the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER service .
Again wait for some hours, and the Component server will be removed and you can delete the Server.

Worked like a charm for me after I rebooted SCCM server.
ReplyDeleteI also needed to reboot the server. Service restart did not do the trick for me.
