Hi. Would appreciate any advice on the following.
We have a setup with a SEC server and approx 6 remote SUM servers. As one of these SUM servers was a 2008 server and we are migrating to 2012 we decided to replace it. This was done by creating a new 2012 server and giving it a temp name and IP. We then renamed and re-IP's the old 2008 server and gave the original name and IP to the new 2012 server. This seems to have worked OK and the clients seem to be taking their updates OK from the new 2012 server. However i think I still have an issue with the messaging service. I have noticed a large build up of messages in the envelopes folder on the SEC. Messages still seem to be moving through the folder (possible form the existing SUM servers) but there is still an increase in size. I think a lot of these could be messages for either the old 2008 physical box or the new 20112 server temporary name neither of which exists anymore (if this makes sense!). I have tried rebooting both the SEC and the SUM with no effect. I have also tried stopping and staring the Update manager service on the SEC as well as the Message Router service with no effect. Finally I have tried renaming the Envelopes folder but the size builds up again. I was going to delete the servers from the SEC and add in the correct one again but having read other posts on this forum have held off from doing this. I am confident this is not an actual updating issue and more of a messaging issue. Grateful if you could confirm I am right in my assumptions and also of a course of action.
