[Bucardo-general] question regarding decommissioning bucardo

[David Christensen]

Hi Paul,

Bucardo leaves the delta tables and triggers around as a precaution, and so you could tinker with syncs via add/drop table without losing data once setup.

You can safely remove those triggers/delta tables.  You’ll want to remove the triggers first, then drop the tables.

Best,

David
