Decommissioning Server Replication

DB Config File

On the server that your master Framework Server is installed, navigate in Windows File Explorer to the TapeTrack Installation folder (default = C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\var\db) and open the file DB_CONFIF with a text editor such as Notepad.

Edit Config File

Scroll to the bottom of the config file until you see the replication code section

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

Add a hash tag to the start of the lines of code to convert them to comments so they will be skipped when TapeTrack loads the config file.

#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

Save the file, ensuring that it saves as DB_CONFIG.cfg and not .txt
