HCW8008 Server doesn't have the Client Access server role installed when you run the HCW

Original KB number:   3087157

Problem

When you run the Hybrid Configuration wizard (HCW), you receive the following error message:

HCW8008 The server <ServerName> is listed as a Client Access server in the HybridConfiguration Active Directory object, but it doesn't have the Client Access server role installed.

Cause

This problem may occur if you removed the Client Access server role from a server that you selected as one of the receiving Client Access servers in the Hybrid Configuration wizard.

Solution

To resolve this problem, do one of the following:

  • Install the Client Access server role on the server.
  • Run the Hybrid Configuration wizard again. On the page on which you specify the receiving Client Access servers, select a server that has the Client Access server role installed.
