Dead Domain Controller

[James Blair]

While I was out of town last week, one of my Domain Controllers had two
disks of a three disk RAID go belly up. Luckily, this box was merely for
fault tolerance and had no effect on operations, other than filling the logs
with replication failure notices, it does leave me with a problem. As the
box is unrecoverable (and past it's prime anyway), I never got a chance to
demote it. So now I am stuck with an comptuer account in AD for a DC that
no longer exists. I removed the box as a replication partner to stop the
error messages, but is there anything else I should do?

Any recommendations?
