 Scroll to the bottom of the config file until you see the replication code section
+<code>
+rep_set_priority 1
+repmgr_site replicant-1.tapetrack.com 5010
+repmgr_site master.tapetrack.com 5010 db_local_site on db_group_creator on

+The embedded database used by TapeTrack uses transactional protection. This means that as updates are applied to the underlying database, they are first written to a log file.
+If you plan to not make use of replication again disabling the replication subsystem will allow the database to automatically remove any log files that are no longer active and save on disk space. This can be accomplished easily by using the Framework Server Helper (recommended method) or by direct registry edit (advanced method).
+Instructions for disabling the replication subsystem can be viewed at [[technote:disable_replication|Disable Replication]]
