Thread: PostgreSQL on RedHat High Availability Server.
Anyone out there used PostgreSQL on Redhat's High Availability Server? We are trying to determine if a RedHat/PostgreSQL combo could be used in a dual-redundant manner, such as a Active/Inactive cluster configuration. Anyone out there do this? Any problems, gripes, or success stories? Please respond to ralph AT pcioh.com. Thank you. -- Ralph Allan Rice System Analyst Performace Concepts, Inc.

I all you wanted to was read data, it should work just fine. If not, you need to make your programs aware of the fact you're running on multiple machines and update all of the databases - and handle the situation that one may be down, and needs to be updated before going online again. -- Trond Eivind Glomsrød Red Hat, Inc.
