    You can stop replication to a GitHub Enterprise Server replica temporarily, or permanently remove replication.

    Stopping replication temporarily

    1. If necessary, stop a geo-replication replica from serving user traffic by removing the Geo DNS entries for the replica.
    2. On the replica where you wish to temporarily stop replication, run ghe-repl-stop. 
      $ ghe-repl-stop
    3. To start replication again, run ghe-repl-start. 
      $ ghe-repl-start

    Removing replication permanently

    1. If necessary, stop a geo-replication replica from serving user traffic by removing the Geo DNS entries for the replica.
    2. On the replica you wish to remove replication from, run ghe-repl-stop. 
      $ ghe-repl-stop
    3. On the replica, to tear down the replication state, run ghe-repl-teardown. 
      $ ghe-repl-teardown
