Domain Controller Decommission Error - can't find a GC server

$

Hello,

We have a Windows Server SBS 2008 DC that we are trying to decommission.  It also was our exchange server (2007) but we migrated to O365.  We have a new Server 2012 R2 DC up and running.  Ive moved the following roles to the 2012 server:

  • ADDS, DNS, DHCP
  • FSMO roles
  • Global Catalog Server

Now when I try to run dcpromo on the SBS server, it gets to the end and fails saying it can't find a global catalog server.  Ive check the firewalls and also made sure  the NIC is pointing to the new server for DNS.  When I try to uninstall Exchange 2007 from the SBS server, I get the same error message stating it can't find a GC server.  Does anyone have any suggestions? 

Thanks.
