PENDING Can't delete Server due to Component Server

[tony]

I'm trying to delete the one server from my site and I follow the directions on here but not working. I tried modify other server setting and restarting servers. The actual server is still live and all of the SCCM install are uninstalled. Please help.

You need to wait for sometime so that the role can be removed. It could be from 6 to 12 hours. If this is still an issue then we really need to troubleshoot this. Can you update the current status of this issue ?.

its been a 10 days. I tried some registry hack yesterday still not working. I looked at the compstat

I tried the registry but still doesnt' work.

Before removing the component server role, which role have you uninstalled ?. Was it distribution point role ?. What registry hack you have tried ?.

 

[tony]

I don't remember which was the last role that was uninstalled. I uninstalled all now the only one is component and site system.

1. Make sure all the roles apart from Component Server and Site System are removed.
2. On the Site Server regedit to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SMSComponents\SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER\Component Servers\OFFLINESERVERNAME
Under each sub key there will be a value called Deinstallation Start Time, this needs to be changed to 1.
3. Stop and restart the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER service

@tony - I am really not sure what role have you uninstalled. I would suggest you to revert back the registry values to default one if it has not worked. Could you try and find out what role it was ?. Is this on a lab setup or prod environment ?.

I've revert and it was distribution point. It is semi prod enviroment.
