Any ideas as to what is happening here. We managed to delete all the other organizations except this one.

Hereis the request.

<request xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <procedure xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'>
    <execute namespace="Hosted Exchange" procedure="DeleteBusinessOrganization" impersonate="1">
      <executeData>
        <path>LDAP://OU=F1 Bahrain,OU=Business Connections Hosting,OU=Hosting,DC=bcmehosting,DC=local</path>
        <preferredDomainController>eve.bcmehosting.local</preferredDomainController>
        <SMTPDomain>f1bahrain.com</SMTPDomain>
      </executeData>
      <after source="executeData" destination="data" mode="merge"/>
    </execute>
  </procedure>
</request>

Here is the response.

<response><errorContext description="Trust failure" code="0x80004005" executeSeq
No="107"><errorSource namespace="Error Provider" procedure="SetError"/><errorSou
rce namespace="Managed Active Directory" procedure="RethrowError_"/><errorSource
 namespace="Managed Helpers" procedure="TryDeletePublicFolders_"/><errorSource n
amespace="Managed Helpers" procedure="DeleteOrganization_"/><errorSource namespa
ce="Hosted Exchange" procedure="DeleteBusinessOrganization"/></errorContext></re
sponse>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

The obvious reason is that there seems to be a major error at the Exchange Provider.  It appears that when trying to delete the org, the namespace is also trying to delete a public folder that was associated with that user.  Can you look at the Public Folder server and see if there is a Public Folder for that org?  If not, try manually creating it using Exchange System Manager and then try your request again.

I have had a look and it seems that the public folder is still in system manager and can still be accessed. ran provtest again after rebooting all the servers and still ge the above error. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply Philip Paterson

Is there a way to force a deletion?

Hi,

We were told that there is no way to delete organization in HMC 4.0 if you enabled Public folders on it - which is a not supported feature( which is working :) ).

The only way we found to delete such organization is manually delete it from the AD and Exchange and then find any thing related to it in the HMC Data base and delete from there too. We tested it in Development environment and it is working, but I wouldn't do it in Production if I can live without doing it :)
