Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Data Management:
Database Administration

Emergency disabling of a cluster-enabled database

In the event of an unrecoverable error, you can clear the cluster setting in the master block of a cluster-enabled database. Use the following command to clear the cluster setting from the master block:

prostrct cluster dbname clear

Clearing the cluster setting allows you to start and manage the database without cluster protection. Clearing the cluster setting does not clean up cluster-specific objects associated with the database. You must manually remove these objects.

Note: Use of the PROSTRCT command to clear the cluster setting is for emergency use only. Under normal circumstances, the PROCLUSTER command should be used to disable a cluster-enabled database. See the "Disabling a cluster-enabled database" section.
