Thread: Postgres Cluster on Solaris
Hello All,
I am interested in running Postgres on Solaris using SunCluster. I am hoping that someone this list has experience with this configuration. To be honest I am having a difficult time understanding the concept of Postgres clusters. I originally began looking at Linux HA, I would like to run on Suns’ T5220 and I at a loss to how well this setup runs.
Thanks,
Travis Smith

I recently tested the agent with Postgres running in two Solaris zones on a single node, and the automatic failover worked quite well. I haven't tried the two-node config yet, but it should work.
