Thanks Ed, Let me rephase it. I need to stop replication as my tables on the peer are changing. After stopping, I will need to start replication again to the tables.
To stop the replication, on the primary instance tables i am going to set config to set replication false. Basically running config -t my_table -s table.replication=false (currently true). I believe that setting will stop replicating that table to peer. However, there is still data in primary replication table and system will still try to replicate to peer (on peer corresponding tables no longer exist!), i can see it is still replicating to the peer on the replication page on the monitor UI. I can set primary replication table offline, but when I bring it online again, that data will be still there. So the question is, how can I safely remove the data in primary replication table? One time i tried to do deleteall on primary replication table but when accumulo master re-started, it was complaining a lot about replication data, so just wanted to figure out proper steps. thanks -S ________________________________ From: dev1 <d...@etcoleman.com> Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2022 8:04 AM To: 'user@accumulo.apache.org' <user@accumulo.apache.org> Subject: [External] RE: how to stop entire (or on a single table) replication properly I do not understand what you are asking – it would help if you stated what you are trying to accomplish and if you clearly identified source vs. destination.

However this will not affect entries in the replication table and the system will keep (or try to keep) replicating. I can take replication table offline, but eventually when I need to start replication it will not clean. How can I delete entries in the replication table? Can i just do delete all? will that work? -S
