Hi !
Hopefully this is a situation in virtuel environments and not on physical
servers with storage on SAN.as replication have to follow up in a autorestart without a manual new basebackup.
What OS are you running? recovery.conf gets renamed to 'recovery.done' only when a promotion (failover) occurs. This can happen a number of ways (pg_ctl promote, trigger_file, etc..). Typically, these commands are not executed automatically for you, you would have had to either install a tool that does auto failover, or the startup scripts in your OS did something (highly doubtful).

Does anyone have experience with replication on physical servers(slaves)?
