Azure AD Connect decommission

Hi,
I migrated the old Azure AD connect server to a new one.
Now the old server is in staging mode and I want to decommission it.
What is the correct way to do it?
Can I just uninstall it from the control panel?

Thanks
Andrea

If you have configure the old server where is AAConnect in "staging mode" and the new server with AADConnect in normal mode disabling "staging mode", yes, you can uninstall AADConnect from control panel of old server.

Hi Marco,
I uninstalled Azure AD Connect but in Azure AD there is still the old user used for synchronization:

Sync_oldservename_95c91fcafc6b@acme.com

I cannot delete the user because it is synchronized.
In AD on-premises this user does not exist and did not exist before because it was used internally by Azure AD Connect.

how can i delete this user?

Thanks
Andrea

do this... open Powershell and do :


connect-msolservice
Remove-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName Sync_oldservename_95c91fcafc6b@acme.com
