If i touch my trigger file and promote my secondary to a master - what effect will that have on the Master - will i need to make any changes on that side ? Will it still try and stream data across to the promoted secondary and just fill up the log files with error messages ?

So if someone could help with the steps to turn off replication and bring secondary up as a standalone db that would be great.

How to promote a node: pg_ctl promote or use a trigger_file:
Turning temporarily off replication has little meaning if you intend to bring back a new standby afterwards.
