I was able to fix this and remove the replicated nodes. I had to redefine the 
whole infrastructure for replication just to delete it. It turns out this 
wasn't going to work for what we are trying to do anyways. See next message 
"move nodes from one server to a different server via export"




Unfortunately I had already removed the replicated nodes on both servers and it
still won't let me delete it.

Hi John

About the second part of your message, ANR1633E REMOVE NODE: Node NODENAME is
set up for replication and cannot be renamed or removed.".

You need first to remove the REPLNODE:   remove replnode NODENAME from both
servers (source and target)

Before you can remove the node

Subject: define server for replication

We have 2 datacenters and plan on having a tsm server at each site. Every c=
lient will backup all o the nodes at that site to the tsm server at that si= te
and then replicate their data to the server at the other site. Both serv= ers
are running tsm 6.3.2. One is aix and one is linux. The linux server is=  brand
new and was just built. The aix server has been around seemingly for= ever and
is currently  backing up nodes from both sites.

I've read through the manual on replication and believe I understand how it=
works. Just as a test, I successfully defined both servers to each other a= nd
successfully replicated one small node from one server to the other.
For whatever reason, the servers stopped taking to each other (I can't find=
any reason anywhere) so I decided I would delete the replicated node on bo= th
servers and also delete each server from the other and redefine them.
When I try "def server <2ndserver> serverpassword=3D<serverpassword> hladdr=
ess=3D2ndserver.blah.blah lladdress=3D1500" (with correct values of course)= ,
it works successfully but when I try "ping server 2ndserver" it always fa= ils
with "ANR4373E Session rejected by target server 2ndserver, reason:
Authenticati= on Failure."
I've tried making sure that all of the below were done on both servers:
set serverhladdress
set serverlladdress
set serverpassword
and tried with both crossdefine on and crossdefine off.
I can't find any logic as to why this doesn't work when I know for a fact i= t
worked previously. There are no nodes type=3Dserver defined on either tsm=
server. The userid I am using to do the command is the same on both server= s
and has the same password although I don't think that matters.  Both serv= ers
have nothing currently set for target replication server.

The replicated node I used for testing is also still defined on the target =
server and I can't delete it either because it says "ANR1633E REMOVE NODE: =
Node NODENAME is set up for replication and cannot be renamed or removed.".=
The replication settings on the replicated node on the target server are r=
eplstate=3Ddisabled replmode=3Dreceive. I can't change the replmode no matt= er
what either.

Is anyone else successfully using replication? It worked once and hasn't si=
nce and now as I am trying to set it all up again as if from scratch, I can= 't
even get the two servers to talk anymore.
Help!
