Hi,
We're using IDS 9.40.UC6 on Redhat 7.3 (i386), and are using ER to
replicate some tables, using CDR_QDATA_SBSPACE ersbspace .
I'm trying to drop one of the chunks from this sbspace but am getting
this error:
[informix@das-chcgate-pri informix]$ onspaces -d ersbspace
-p /opt/informix/ersbspace7 -o 0 -y
Chunk not dropped.
Smart Large Objects: Metadata area in the chunk contains data.
oncheck -pe ersbspace returns this for that chunk:

I've tried this also after deleting all replicates, and deleting the
servers from this host, so I think all replication is stopped at this
point. Everything looks the same, with or without replication running.
Is there any way to drop this chunk? Do I need to tell ER to stop using
that chunk or move the metadata out somehow?
Thanks,
Brian
I believe all smartblobs from the entire dbspace need to be deleted, then a
level-0 archive should do it.

Thanks, makes sense; sounds like I need to delete this:
ersbspace:'informix'.LO_hdr_partn
I can't seem to figure it out. I think I need to find the table that is
associated with this object, but how do I do that? Then once I drop
that table, this object should be deleted, correct?
Thanks,
Brian
