Deleting a replication set

You can delete a replication set. When you delete a replication set, all infrastructure created by the system (internal snapshots required to support replications) is also deleted. The primary and secondary volumes and volume groups no longer have restrictions and function like all other base volumes, volume groups, and snapshots.

If you want to delete a replication set that has a replication in progress, you must first suspend and then stop the replication for that replication set. For more information, see Stopping a replication or Suspending a replication. When a replication set is deleted, the snapshots created from the snapshot history feature will not be deleted. You will be able to manage those snapshots like any other snapshots. For more information, see Maintaining replication snapshot history from the Replications topic.

NOTE:If the peer connection is down and there is no communication between the primary and secondary systems, use the local-only parameter of the delete replication-set CLI command on both systems to delete the replication set. For more information, see the Dell PowerVault ME4 Series Storage System CLI Guide.
