Hi All,

IDS 10.00.UC3
ELAS3.0

In one of the test instance, I setup ER which involves setting up
servers on primary & secondary, setup database with no rows in tables
on secondary, defined replicates, started replicates,  suspended
primary server so that data can be unloaded from those table which have
been defined for replication. For some reason, I need to rebuild ER
again in this test env., so on primary and then on secondary server, I
deleted the servers. Secondary, syscdr has been dropped successfully
but on primary syscdr still exist. Online log shows:

CDR GC: operation catalog purge (drop) failed (error -425).
CDR shutdown failed

I tried again to delete server on primary but got message as "Command
failed - ER not active (62).

I am pretty sure if I try to define server again I will get "command
failed - fatal server error 100

I am hoping sysmaster database has got some pointer back to syscdr. In
normal situation
syscdr get dropped by itself when we delete server but may be server
was in suspend mode and  there were some transaction in the queue (for
sure) or some thing else has gone wrong.

Can some one pl. advise how to drop syscdr cleanly without rebuilding
sysmaster ?

If rebuilding sysmaster is the only way, will I loose any thing for the
other databases under that instance ?

TIA
