Hello

Having a master and 2 slaves in synchronous replication mode in 9.1

The master seems to wait for only one slave to respond before considering the transaction to be complete. I have done the setting for master to wait for all the slaves to finish:
synchronous_standby_names = '*'
I even tried replacing * with both the slave application_names.

Still master just waits for a single slave. Am I doing something incorrect or is it a limitation ?

Thanks.
AJ
