Dropping companion mode is irreversible; you must reconfigure the companion servers before they fail over in a high availability system and retain all the functionality that Sybase Failover provides. However, the companion server is still monitored by the high availability agent. Before dropping companion mode, you must first disable the agent to monitor Adaptive Server. Issue the following command:
hares -modify Sybase_resource_name Enabled 0
To drop companion mode, issue:
sp_companion companion_name, "drop"
