Delete a Replication Partner

  • Change all volume collections so that replication is not scheduled with a partner.

  • Ensure that there are no volume collections that have the replication partner selected.
  • Be sure to remove both the upstream and downstream replication partners.
NOTE: When you delete a replication partner relationship, only the replication partner relationship is deleted, not the array.

This procedure does not apply to synchronous replication. For synchronous replication, you cannot delete pool partners. Pool partners are deleted based on the number of pools in the group.

Delete a replication partner.

partner --delete partner_name

If you removed all volume collection schedules from the source group, you can view the confirmation that the replication partner was deleted. If there are still active schedules associated with the partner, delete those and repeat the process. You may want to promote the volume collection on the downstream partner before you delete it.
