Microsoft Lync error - The central management stores must match before the topology can be published - Can not Publish Topology because Central Management Store not matched

 

This was the Error i got when i am trying to publish the Lync topology.

What happen is first i tried lync installation in abc server and published it, durin this the configuration store location set at abc.lync.com\rtm.

No i have few issues with this abc server and started deployment on abc1 server and when i am trying to publish it i got the following error.

"The existing topology  identifies abc.lync.com\rtc as the central management store, but the topology that you are trying to publish indentifies abc1.stg.local\rtc as the central management store. The central management stores must match before the topology can be published."

 

Resolution step: 

The resolution is in two steps get the  Central management stores info and delete it using Lync shell.


  • Initiated get-CsConfigurationStoreLocation which given me the below configuration store location.
    PS C:\Users\prakash.nimmala> get-CsConfigurationStoreLocation
    abc.lync.com\rtc
  • Initiated remove-CsConfigurationStoreLocation to remove configuration store location from lync memory.
    PS C:\Users\prakash.nimmala> remove-CsConfigurationStoreLocation

    Remove existing configuration store location?
    Removing the configuration store location set to "abc.lync.com\rtc"
    will break your Lync Server deployment.  Do you want to continue?
