When removing a repository and trying to reconnect the import button is not an option.
Changing the ID in the globalmanifest.metadata, will trick the database into thinking it’s a new repo and allow you to reimport with read/write access.
Go to the root of your repository and look for the globalmainfest.metadata, use notepad or any text editor to open this file.
Change the RepositoryUUID, to a slightly changed ID, using only hex numbers 0-9 a-f
Example below
<RepositoryUUID>8a0d2ce9-09ae-4cf4-99bb-fe0882881dfb</RepositoryUUID>
Changed to
<RepositoryUUID>8a0d2ce9-09ae-4cf4-99bb-fe0882881dfC</RepositoryUUID>
Once this is done connect back to the existing repository and the import (not import as read only) should now be an option.
