Problem
During the activation of changes from master the central site for a remote site, we faced an issue. This will happen if WATO is enabled on the remote site and you have pending changes there.

On the slaveremote:
In the 'replication_changes_slaveremote.mk', you will find the pending change.

In order to activate changes successfully from master central to slaveremote, you need to delete both replication-Files on the slaveremote:
| Code Block |

|
OMD[slaveremote]:~/var/check_mk/wato$ rm replication_* |
...
| Note |

To avoid this issue, disable WATO on the slave remote and push the configuration only from mastercentral. |
