WARNING! Use the with nowait clause only when the destination is temporarily irrecoverable and you must drop the route without waiting for the destination Replication Server to become available.
This command instructs the source Replication Server to drop its route to the destination without informing the destination Replication Server. You must then clean up the destination Replication Server when it becomes available again.
When you execute drop route with the with nowait option:
The source Replication Server drops all the system table subscriptions created by the destination.
The source Replication Server cleans up the route by deleting the route entry from its rs_routes system table and, for direct routes, dropping the outbound queue.
