The rmreplica operation cannot be imported

Import of an rmreplica operation fails if the importing replica records that the removed replica still masters objects.

The import fails with an error like the following:

multitool: Error: There are still objects mastered by this replica.
multitool: Error: Unable to replay oplog entry 565632: error detected
by VersionVault subsystem.
565632:
12  op= rmreplica
13  replica_oid= 48abc01d.123456a7.b890.06:00:08:c4:73:84 (boston_hub.mstr)
14  oplog_id= 23456
15  op_time= 08/07/02 12:35:46 create_time= 08/07/02 12:35:46
16  event comment= "Destroyed replica "boston_hub".

This situation can occur if two replica hosts do not have the same patch level or if an upgrade had problems.

You can use the lsmaster command to determine which objects are believed to be mastered by the removed replica. In this example, the administrator at importing replica sanfran_hub uses the lsmaster command to list the objects replica sanfran_hub believes to be mastered by replica boston_hub:
multitool lsmaster –view admin_view boston_hub@/vobs/dev
master replica: boston_hub@/vobs/dev  "label type" V2.0
master replica: boston_hub@/vobs/dev  "label type" V1.1
In this example, the administrator at replica sanfran_hub uses the lsmaster command to contact all replicas in the VOB family and list the objects they believe to be mastered by replica boston_hub:
multitool lsmaster –view admin_view –inreplicas –all boston_hub@/vobs/dev
In replica "bangalore"
master replica: boston_hub@/vobs/dev "label type" V2.0
In replica "sanfran_hub"
master replica: boston_hub@/vobs/dev  "label type" V2.0
master replica: boston_hub@/vobs/dev  "label type" V1.1
