Managing the NetWare Directory Services Tree
Creating and Managing Directory Services Partitions
Procedure
1 At the DOS prompt, type
PARTMGR <Enter>
2 From the “Partition Administration” menu, choose “Manage Partitions.”
Your current context appears in the upper left corner of the screen.
3 Select the partition that has a replica you want to delete.
• If the partition appears on the list, select it and press <Enter>.
• If the partition is not on the list, browse the directory by selecting objects and
pressing <Enter> until you see the partition you want. Select it and press
<F10>.
4 Select “View/Edit Replicas.”
A list of the replicas stored on your selected partition appears. Each replica’s
type is also displayed.
5 Select the replica to delete and press <Delete>.
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 To delete a replica, choose “Yes.”
