To delete the Secondary RVG

1. Select the Secondary RVG and right-click. Select Delete Secondary RVG from the menu that appears.

2. The Delete Secondary dialog box appears. Depending on the current state of replication the appropriate message is displayed in the dialog box.

   • If the replication is already stopped then the dialog displays a confirmation message asking you if you want to proceed with deleting the Secondary RVG. Click Yes to delete the Secondary RVG. Click No to cancel the operation.

   • If replication to the Secondary RVG in the RDS is active, it must be stopped before you delete the Secondary RVG. Otherwise, the Delete Secondary dialog displays the following confirmation message:

     To delete the Secondary, replication must be stopped.
     Are you sure you want to stop the replication 
     and delete the Secondary?

   • If Volume Replicator is configured in a VCS or Microsoft Cluster and the cluster resource for this RVG exists, then Volume Replicator fails the Delete Secondary operation as this can cause the resource to fail. In such a situation, first delete the cluster resource before deleting the Secondary.

     To proceed, click Yes. Click No to cancel the operation.
