How to uninstall 2013EX successfully without upsetting Exchange 2019?

Hello All,
I've finished the 2019EX install, I've disabled ALL 2031EX sending and receive connectors and turned the 2013EX server off.
So far all email is working just fine. All things are flowing through the 219EX server as expected.

So Now I want to get rid of the 2013EX server.
I have this command:
Setup.exe /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms /mode:Uninstall

But I want to verify with some experts first.
1) Will this in any way adversely affect my 2019EX in production?
2) Will this command also delete the 2013EX database? (I thought I read somewhere I needed to delete the database.)
3) Is there anything else I need to do before running the above command?

Thanks in advance.

  1. No, if everything looks good, then you should be good to go.

  2. No, the database files will not be removed by this process. You can remove manually once 2013 is uninstalled if you want.

  3. Nope, if you have forgotten something, the uninstall process will flag it!
