I want to remove a WFE from the Farm in the correct way - but I can't disable the DC on that WFE1 server...
It's stuck in starting within the CA -> services on server
Distributed Cache "Starting"
If I see the Cachehost on APP server - it's there, but down - If I the try to start it (on WFE1) - it tells me it's not there....
How do I get the DC up and running on WFE1 in order to stop it for good and remove it (tried to remove the server from the farm - but still the WFE1 was reported as part of the cache) - and can I fix it without downtime for the endusers?
