Hi,
Your method is different from mine, but I think that both methods will
face the same constraints in case of failover...
Anyway, my setup is working fine, so I won't change anything !
The only point is that it could have been useful to be able to lock a
sequence...
It seems that it was possible with PostgreSQL 7.0, but was removed in 7.1 :
