I’m in the process of testing PG v12.7 hot streaming standby’s in async mode, and specifically in the areas of switchover and switchback.
Async mode, huh?
In SQL Server, at least, you must be in synchronous replication mode before doing a (manual or automatic) non-crash failover, to guarantee that all the transaction log data has reached the replica before the switchover.
