Sorry for replying to my own post, but I forgot to mention that when
the second replication set was added, it seems that the original
replication set got corrutped on the slaves and the master seems to
have the table and sequence objects moved into the subscription tree
and for the additional replication set, it has no table object, no
sequence object, and simply cannot be removed or objects added to it.
