Re: Remove crashed server from tree cleanly also had a replica

If the server is gone and never coming back (or if it is coming back, is
being reinstalled from scratch) just find the server-related object(s) and
delete them via your favorite tool. Replicas should clean themselves up
(hopefully you had replicas of partitions elsewhere, which you likely
did). Some services may need to be recreated if they did not exist
elsewhere (you identified printing) such as certificate services (IF this
server was the CA server, which seems unlikely) or something like that.

Good luck.
