+## Remove RERC
+
+3. From a working cluster, remove the unresponsive RERC from the Active-Active database.
+
+ {{}}Verify you are removing the correct instance before running this command.{{}}
+
+ ```sh
+ crdb-cli crdb remove-instance --crdb-guid --instance-id --force
+ ```
+
+4. Wait a few minutes until the REAADB status remains `active` consistently.
+
+ ```sh
+ kubectl get reaadb example-aadb-1
+ NAME STATUS SPEC STATUS LINKED REDBS REPLICATION STATUS
+ example-aadb-1 active Valid up
+ ```
+
+5. Edit the REAADB to remove the unresponsive RERC from the `spec.particpatingClusters` section.
+
+ ```sh
+ kubectl edit reaadb
+ ```
+
+6. Wait a few minutes until the REAADB status remains `active` consistently.
+
+ ```sh
+ kubectl get reaadb example-aadb-1
+ NAME STATUS SPEC STATUS LINKED REDBS REPLICATION STATUS
+ example-aadb-1 active Valid
+ ```
+
+7. From each working participating cluster, repeat steps 5 and 6 to remove the RERC from the REAADB.
+
+## Optional: Purge local data
+
+If you want to delete REAADB data from the unresponsive cluster, you can run the `crdb-cli purge-instance` command from the unresponsive cluster.
+
+{{}}Use with caution and verify you are purging the correct instance.{{}}
+
+```sh
+crdb-cli crdb purge-instance --crdb-guid --instance-id
+```
+
+## Next steps
+
+After the communication issue on the cluster is resolved, you can add it back to the REAADB configuration by following the steps for [Add a participating cluster]({{}}).
