Thread: Please Post
I am working with PostgreSQL 9.1.3 – I setup a master and standby – Initiated replication and verified that it was occurring – Failed over from master to standby and verified that the database could be updated on the new master – I then configured the former standby as a master, the former master as a standby and used the following command from the new master to transfer data to the new standby:
rsync -av --exclude postgresql.conf --exclude pg_xlog /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/* 192.7.143.213:/var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data (with all previous data being removed by rm –rf *)
I then started the new standby first and after a short wait the new master – The standby starts and initially has connect errors but after the master is started the standby appears to start streaming replication and then errors with a timeline error – On the new master all looks good and the database can be accessed via psql.
Here is the content of my recovery.conf file:
standby_mode=on
primary_conninfo='host=192.7.143.111 port=5432 user=ruser password=ruserpass'
trigger_file='/var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/failover'
recovery_target_timeline = 'latest' (same effect when this line is removed)
