2 Select “Partition Manager” from the “Tools” menu.
3 Browse the “Partition Manager” screen to locate the partition whose replica you
want to delete.
If the object where the container is stored does not appear in the window, browse
the Directory tree either by selecting an object to see its subordinates or by
choosing the arrow key to move toward the Root. Your current context appears
in the upper left corner of the screen.
For information about moving around in the “Partition Manager” screen and
selecting objects, choose the “Help” button.
4 Select the partition and choose “Replicas.”
5 Select the server you want to delete the replica from and choose “Delete Replica.”
You cannot delete a master replica. If the replica you want to delete is a master,
go to a server with another replica of the master and make it the new master
replica. This automatically changes the old master replica to a read/write replica,
which you can delete.
For instructions, see “Viewing a List of Partitions in a Directory Tree” in this
chapter.
6 Choose “OK.”
