Thanks for the reply.

I think the problem is permissions. The fact that the pgpool runs as root
user, its likely that postgres can’t remove the created trigger file.

I ended up doing two things in my pgp failover_stream.sh script, which
creates the file:
/bin/ssh -T $new_master /bin/touch $trigger_file
    /bin/ssh -T $new_master chown postgres $trigger_file

Seems with changing the ownership of the trigger file, postgres can now
delete the file. Not sure why I’m having to do this, as I haven’t seen
anyone else encounter this issue.

Anyway, with these changes, it appears to be working correctly.

Thanks for the response.

-Jim
