Reinitialize EDR

Hi guys, I'm tyring to set up EDR between two test servers. Is it possible that I have to make 'oninit -iy' each time I want to start with EDR from scratch ? Exactly... the first time I start with EDR all works perfectly, then I delete the replication, delete the server but when I try to re-define the remote server with command cdr define server --connet=remote_server --init --sync=g_local g_remote I get this error: Replication already active. I tried to drop 'syscdr' database but it seams not enough. I saw that also sysmaster keeps information about edr so... what is the correct way to recreate an edr environment WITHOUT re-initialize the whole server ? TIA

1) Which version of the engine? 2) All that should really be necessary is to run "cdr delete server" for the server that you want to remove from the enterprise.

In this version it is not enough to do a "cdr delete server". the syscdr database remains in the server. To redefine your cdr server you have the following possibillities: 1. cdr define server without --init/-I 2. drop syscdr database, rebuild sysmaster database Wile

If the syscdr database remains on an 7.31 instance after a cdr delete server has been run on that instance, then that indicates that there is a problem. Please open a case with tech support so that the problem can be correctly resolved. You should never have to manually drop the syscdr database. That can lead to inconsistancy problems with the global dictionary between the various instances. Additionally this will cause inconsistancies with sysmaster. > > > To redefine your cdr server you have the following possibillities: > > 1. cdr define server without --init/-I > 2. drop syscdr database, rebuild sysmaster database > > Wile
