Demoting a master

 

Use this information to change the role of a server from a master to a replica. To change the role of a server from a master to a replica do the following:

1. Connect the Web administration tool to the server that you want to demote.

2. Click Manage topology.

3. Select the subtree and click Show topology.

4. Delete all the agreements for the server you want to demote.

5. Select the server you are demoting and click Move.

6. Select the server under which you are going to place the demoted server and click Move.

7. Just as you would for a new replica, create new supplier agreements between the demoted server and its supplier. See Creating a replica server for instructions.
