The damage may not be as severe as you think. What is the actual name of that sequence 10 according to sl_sequence? Does that sequence exist in the slave database? > > I am presuming the UNINSTALL NODE will bypass the slony event queue (which is > blocked up with an error) ? UNINSTALL NODE is a command that actually removes all traces of Slony from a database. There should not be a slon daemon running at that time and you are left with a standalone database, that has no idea what Slony is at all. Both databases would still have all your tables with whatever data is currently in them. So you would stop the slon daemons, run UNINSTALL NODE against both, master and slave. Then rebuild your replication from scratch, just assuming that you don't have to copy any schema. The tables already exist on the slave, so there is not need to do that.
