     I have a Windows 2003 server domain with Exchange 2003.  So I installed Exchange 2010 and migrated everything from Exchange 2003.  Everything went great.  Next i installed a Windows 2008 server, promoted it, and moved all the FSMO roles over.  (By the way I have 2 DCs)  Next day, I demote the WIndows 2003 server that had the FSMO roles.  Now Exchange I can send and connect to my mailboxes, Here are the errors I get:

    (PID 6592, Thread 5) Task Get-OrganizationConfig throwing terminating exception at stage Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.ADTransientException: An error caused a change in the current set of domain controllers.. Exception: {5d1e6e09-737e-4594-9e8f-a6be18dfb0ba}

    When do you receive the error event, launch the EMC/EMS?

    Please right-click the “Organization Configuration” (EMC) and choose “Configuration Domain Controller”, select “Specify a Domain controller” and chose the domain and DC

    A corrupted local profile for administrator account on the server could cause similar symptom, please rename the existing profile and create a new one, see if the issue still persists

    Please logon with a new account, see if the issue still persists

    After some research I found a more explicit (but not fully explicit) resolution associated to the "corrupt profile" response.  File C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\MMC\Exchange Management Console contains the potential root cause to this issue.  I don't know specifically which portion of the file is causing the issue (I didn't try and translate the binary blobs), but removing the file resolved the issue for me.  My event logs clearly showed that EMC was trying to access the old/removed DC.

    I received this error on Exch 2010 after removing one of the DC's. Changing the - “Configuration Domain Controller”, select “Specify a Domain controller”-  did not solve the issue but removing the Exchange Mgt Console file per ITWoodshed solved the problem for me.

     

    Thanks ITW

    Thanks.  I've been living with this for a while.  I came across your reply and gave it a shot.  Logged on with another username (with domain admin rights).  Deleted the local profile of the old admin I had been logging in with.  Then, I logged off and logged back in with the old admin username again.  The profile got recreated and, when I went back to Exchange admin, all errors were gone.  I even was able to get my Global Address book to start syncing again.

    Yay!

    Thanks James.
