I found this message:http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd6forum.nsf/DateAllThreadedWeb/1F11F9E8E0F3963D85256E5200687223
but no resolve.
I deleted a server in my environment, yet I repeatedly get a replication error from my Admin server to the server which has been deleted. I’ve gone through and can’t find any databases where this server is in the ACL. LDAP is not used. Still the message repeatedly appears every minute or so.
Any ideas?? Is there any additional logging information I can enable to show me WHY this is trying to replicate with a deleted server?

It’s been mentioned in the thread you linked to, but since you didn’t mention it explicitely, I still ask: Did you look for old connection documents? In the worst of all cases, even a connection document could have a $Readers item that could prevent you from seeing it.
If the directory is a rather small one, you could try to use DDSearch to search for the old server name. Probably not much of a good idea, if there are thousands of documents, though.
Another option could be to run an agent on the server with full administration rights, that does a full-text search for any documents containing the old server name.

No connection Docs.
Downloading DDSearch to check it.

It could be possible that the replication problem is being caused by a collection hierarchy in ddm.nsf. To see if this is the case quit the event task and see if the replication error messages disappear. If that is the case then you know the problem is being caused by ddm. Open ddm and make sure that the collection hierarchy does not have the old server listed in there.

Stopped event Monitor task, and message did not appear. When I restarted it, replication error started again. My DDM hierarchy does not contain the old server. I’m wondering if I need to delete and recreate. I also went through events4 and cleaned up some references to the one server I’m having problems with, along with others which have been long since removed from existence.

It is very likely that the reference to the old server is in the document. Open ddm.nsf and open the hidden view $vwstatuslook for the documents that have a 2 next to them. Open them then right click and select document properties. look for the field ChildServers or ChildServerPend. If the server are listed in there then delete the document and recreate the collection hierarchy.

Ric,Thanks for keeping up and offering suggestions. In that hidden view in DDM, there still is no reference to the old server. I guess I’ll have to turn in a call to IBM as this one is strange.

Subject: The fix worked for me
I was having the same problem (even though I removed the server from the hierarchy before deleting it as per recommendation in DDM).The old server appeared in the ChildServerPend field, I wrote a simple agent to clear the field, ran it on the affected docs and restarted events on the server - no more messages.
Thanks for the suggestion.
