Re: BDR: DDL lock problem with function inside a schema - Mailing list pgsql-general

Questions:
---------------
-Is it a known bug? If yes should I report it (and where)?

Please open a report on github for this - https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/issues

=> https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/issues/87

 

-How to recover such DDL lock problems operation without recreating the database? In other words, what is the proper way to cleanly restart both nodes?

Restarting both nodes should be sufficient, and I am surprised to see that is not the case here. This needs more investigation.

 

-Is it a well known method to properly detach and attach nodes?

I'm not sure I understand.

If you mean join and remove nodes, join with bdr.bdr_group_join, remove with bdr.bdr_part_by_node_names .

I was trying to find a way to recover the situation. I though that detaching all nodes with bdr.bdr_part_by_node_names(), then reattaching then with bdr.bdr_group_join() could help, but I did not succeed to do it.

In fact, this question is orthogonal / not related to the problem : I just would like to detach /attach a node dynamically. Is it well supported / planned to be supported ?

Thanks and Regards,
