Demote AD - tapi3directory

I have 3 dc's in a domain and now I want to demote 1 of the 3 dc's. When I
start dcpromo on the dc that I want to demote, then I get a reminder on the
dc that there is an application directory on it. This is a TAPI3Directory.
Can I remove this application directory without have problems with the
Active Directory?

Hi Patrick,
A Telephony related application installed the application directory
partition and if the app is still being used, you need to keep the
partition.
The partition is used to facilitate H.323-based IP telephony calls and
conferencing.

My advice would be to create the application partition on some other DC,
replicate the partition from old DC to new DC then remove the partition from
old and then DCpromo out the old DC.

To create a TAPI app partition, see:

To remove a TAPI app partition, see:
