Additional Information
Deleting a Replica
When you delete replicas, keep the following guidelines in mind:
• If a master replica becomes corrupted, change a read/write or read-only replica
on another server to a master replica. This automatically changes the old master
replica to a read/write replica.
• For fault tolerance, you should maintain replicas of the master partition on
different servers.
Replicas can be deleted using NetWare Administrator or PARTMGR. Both
procedures are documented in this section.
