Hi,
Trying to find an answer for this.
We have an exchange hybrid environment. If I run disable-remotemailbox for a migrated user, will that remove the AzureAD object?
Article says on-premises AD object is not removed but it isn't clear about the Azure AD Object.

Correct, all this does is remove the mail attributes on the on-prem account, it does not remove the actual AD Account
Hi @Andy David - MVP ,
The actual AD account is retained and synchronized (assuming no changes in sync scope), hence will not be deleted/removed in Azure AD?
Correct. Disable-remotemailbox does not delete or move the actual AD Account so it will continue to sync to Azure as long as its in scope.
Thanks a mil @Andy David - MVP !
