    Hi,

    I am a SQL DBA. My company is using MS Dynamic CRM 4.0 but unfortunately there is no Administrator for CRM. Some developers are there and they customize the CRM as requested by clients. around 200 originations exist in my CRM (multi-tenancy). so each origination having its own SQL Server Database, Report Folder in SSRS, OS & Users in AD.

    Now we want to clean around 150 originations from CRM. Please suggest what would we the best method to clean Database, Reports, OS from CRM.

    Can I manfully Drop Database from SQL Server, Delete Folders from SSRS using Report Manager, Delete OU from Active Directory. Is this method correct?

    CRM server did not show the reports when I try to open http://localhost/Reports and also Report Manager did not respond.

    Please help!

    With Respectfully,

    Ramdas

    Use the CRM deployment manager to delete you organisations first. then you can go and delete the databases, OU's, report folders and users. you will also have to delete the OU groups under the Security->Users within SQL management studio.

    when you tried http://localhost/Reports, where you on the server. If so, does the reports website show? If it does then you can click on the Show Details in the top right of the grid to have the folders displayed.
