Ok so a question i should have asked at the very beginning ..

If i touch my trigger file - promoting the secondary to a master - will that in anyway effect the master thats already running ?

IE no files on the master will change ?

Then all i'll have to do is shutdown the secondary when i've finished and run the basebackup process again to restore replication (and change recovery.done - conf again.

thanks.

No i don't want a replica.

I would like to reconfigure my streaming scenario into two standalone db's i don't want the Master to be effected in anyway and i want it running consistantly .. the secondary i want to reconfigure as a standalone to load a different db and do some testing.
When i've finished testing - i want to reconfigure for streaming again.

Well, in this case:
1) promote your standby
2) Run your tests on it.
3) Recreate a new standby
The documentation online, as well as the PostgreSQL wiki have all the documentation to help you achieve those steps.
