Thread: missing client_hostname
Hi,
I have postgres 12 running in centos7.
I recently have configured streaming replication from master to standby using below command:
/usr/bin/pg_basebackup -h <master ip> -p 5432 -U replication -D /path/of/data/directory/ -Fp -R -Xs -P -c fast
It was successfully configured but when I query pg_stat_replication I don't get the hostname in output:
postgres=# select * from pg_stat_Replication;
-[ RECORD 1 ]----+------------------------------
pid | 3692075
usesysid | 16384
usename | replication
application_name | walreceiver

So please help me understand the reason for this and how I will fix this issue of having a respective hostname in this catalog.

I have already enabled log_hostname, still client_hostname is not showing up.
Do you think that just because I use ip instead of hostname while using pg_basebackup could be the reason for it ?

Did you reconnect your replica after enabling log_hostname? If not, then do it and check again.

Yes, I have already tried that as log_hostname was already enabled by me.
By the way, just to inform you that the log_hostname is used for logging the hostname instead of ip addresses in error log files only, Please correct me if I am wrong.
Could you help me in telling my query that Iasked in my trial mail:
"Do you think that just because I use ip_address instead of hostname while using pg_basebackup on standby side could be the reason for not showing client_hostname in pg_stat_replication ?" I used below command in standby node:
/usr/bin/pg_basebackup -h <master ip> -p 5432 -U replication -D /path/of/data/directory/ -Fp -R -Xs -P -c fast
Regards.

Hi, please don't top-post. ## Atul Kumar (akumar14871@gmail.com): > I have already enabled log_hostname, still *client_hostname is not showing > up.* It's always helpful to mention relevant non-default settings along with the question. Was log_hostname really active at backup start time? (Check pg_settings before starting the backup). Can the server actually resolve the IP address to a host name? > Do you think that just because I use ip instead of hostname while using > pg_basebackup could be the reason for it ? No. Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
