Old DP still showing in certmgr log

[ajhawkes]

Hello All,

We recently closed a site and so I removed the DP role on it's servers last week, however my CertMgr.log is still showing errors that it cannot connect to it, making me believe my database wasn't updated when I removed the role.  Is there a way I can confirm my suspicions and if need be, remove it manually from the database so it stops trying to check in?  I know sometimes these things take time, but it has been over a week.  First I removed the DP role from the server, and then then I removed the component server all together. 

Thank you in advance!

@ajhawkes Most times, these things sort themselves out as long as the old machine is up for a little bit, but there have been times when a database edit has been required. Doing that on your own, though, is very unsupported, and you need to work with Microsoft support for that removal. Any direct database edit of ConfigMgr should always be done by their support if you know what to delete and where.
