    See Viewing Table Information.
  2. Click Replication to go to that tab.
  3. Select the replicas to remove by clicking the associated checkbox.
    Selecting the checkbox next to a replica makes the Actions drop-down menu available.
  4. Select Remove Replica(s) from the Actions drop-down menu.
    The Remove Replica(s) confirmation window displays.

    The selected replicas are no longer replicas of the source table and will no longer receive updates from the source table. You must also remove upstream source to remove the association between the source table and the replica table. For more information, see Removing Upstream Sources.

Removing Replication Using the CLI or REST API

The un-register a replica, run the following command:

maprcli table replica remove -path <table path> -replica <replica table path>
To run this command, your user ID must have the following permissions:
  • readAce and writeAce on both the source volume and the target volume
  • lookupdir on directories in the paths of both tables
  • readperm and replperm permissions on the source table
