Hello Community
Using Sharpoint 2010 Server I think the reason
the User Profile Synchronization would stop is because somehow the farm
account was registered as a managed account. So I removed the farm
account from all services that ran under the farm account so that I could
run Remove-SPManagedAccount or click the Remove icon in manage service accounts
and then unregisted farm account as a managed account.
But before I can run Remove-SPManagedAccount I need to remove it from one more
service account that uses the farm account which is:
"Application Discovery and Load Balanceer Service Account".
However, nothing seems to remove it from there.
I tried :
"get-spserviceapplication | where {$_.TypeName -match "Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application"}
and then
"stop-spserviceinstance "dde7fbef-b068-4687-bedb-f67230efab5a"
amongst a host of other methods so that I could ultimately
unregister farm account as a managed account.
But no matter what I do when I try to remove the farm account from Application Discovery
and Load Balancer Service Application
and then unregister the farm account as a managed account a message always says
"Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application" is using the farm account
as its service account.
What can I do to free the farm account from Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application?
Thank you
