"Usage: drop_node [--config file] node# event_node#

    Drops a node.

node# is the id of the node in config file you wish to remove from cluster.

event_node# is the node number of the current origin node; the one capable of
sending notification to other nodes.
This will lead to Slony-I dropping the triggers (generally that deny the
ability to update data), restoring the \"native\" triggers, dropping the
schema used by Slony-I, and the slon process for that node terminating
itself.
 
As a result, the database should be available for whatever use your     
application makes of the database.                                      
 
This is a pretty major operation, with considerable potential to cause  
substantial destruction; make sure you drop the right node!             
 
The operation will fail if there are any nodes subscribing to the node  
that you attempt to drop, so there is a bit of a failsafe to protect    
you from errors.
