Good, I agree.

Hmm... Good question. How about putting CheckForStandbyTrigger() in a wait loop, but reporting FATAL with an
appropriatemessage, such as "promotion is not possible because of insufficient parameter settings"?
Also it suits me if we only document that we ignore promote here. I don't think this is an important case. And yes,
it'snot easy to allow promotion, since we have already updated control file.
Probably we need pause only after we reached consistency?
