I'm trying to uninstall SQL Backend, Archiving, Monitoring and CMS store from LYnc 2010, i'm receiving the error below. I think I know the reason why but i'm not sure how to fix it!
connection failed to database instance attempting to remove database created by script rgsconfigdbsetup.wsf
The person who did the installation of Lync 2010 have used the same SQL database Instance ID for all the database Roles e.g. (Archiving, Monitoring and CMS) all have the same default instance ID which is MSSQLSERVER. in my case when I use the function -verbose I get the following.
