Use the drop backupserver, drop monitorserver, or drop xpserver to remove an auxiliary server from the cluster. The Cluster Edition prompts for confirmation before dropping a server.
If you have configured multiple Backup Servers for the cluster, you must drop all Backup Servers. If you have configured single Backup Servers, you can drop one or all of them. However, when you use drop monitorserver or drop xpserver, you drop all XP Servers from the cluster.
