DATA REPLICATION After a Failure

Hi, Informix DSA Ver 7.11 UC2. We are trying Data Replication. If Primary server fails we need to follow following steps to restart Replication. Steps discussed in I-On-line Dynamic Server Admin. guide (V 7.1) for Restarting Data Replication after critical media failure on the primary database server when DRAUTO = 0 are as follows : 1. The original secondary database server was changed to a standard server, Bring this database server to quiescent mode and then use onmode -d secondary prim_name command to change type back to secondary. 2. Restore primary database server from the last archive. If last archive created on primary database server is old OR If last archive created on primary is damaged Then Question: CAN I USE LAST ARCHIVE CREATED ON SECONDARY WHEN IT WAS IN STANDARD MODE ? If I CAN then when should I use onmode -d secondary prim_name Command on secondary server ?. Anyone needs more details for the above mentioned problem Please write to me. Thanks for your help.
