Hi Greg, That's good to know about bucardo 5. Adding "db=db_PEOPLE1" to the end of the "bucardo add table" command did indeed work. Thanks! Are there any advantages or disadvantages to creating a separate herd for the second set of databases? Or, might it be better to have them all in the same herd with different syncs? I do not have any overlapping tables between the two databases.
I have also considered using two separate running instances of bucardo on two separate servers (one for syncing the PEOPLE databases, and the other for the ANIMAL databases), but I'm not sure if that would add any benefit. Thanks again! -----Original Message----- From: Greg Sabino Mullane [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2012 10:58 PM To: Kevin Behr Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Bucardo-general] Multiple Herds for Multi-Master Replication On Mon, Oct 15, 2012 at 08:17:13PM +0000, Kevin Behr wrote: ... > I understand that replication can only be done between two masters, > but is it possible to have multiple, separate herds each doing > multi-master replication? It is possible; however with bucardo 5 (which you are using as evidenced by 'bucardo' instead of 'bucardo_ctl'), you can have as many masters as you would like. The only complication with having multiple, separate herds is to make sure you use "makedelta" if any of the tables overlap. ... > bucardo add db db_PEOPLE1 dbname=PEOPLE1 dbhost=localhost dbport=5432 > bucardo add db db_PEOPLE2 dbname= PEOPLE2 dbhost=localhost dbport=5432 > bucardo add table sps.people_tableA herd=people_herd Did not find > matches for the following terms: > sps.people_tableA That's most likely a bug, if you are sure the table exists on both databases. Does it work if you add db=db_PEOPLE1 to the end of the "bucardo add table" command? -- Greg Sabino Mullane [email protected] End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 _______________________________________________ Bucardo-general mailing list [email protected] https://mail.endcrypt.com/mailman/listinfo/bucardo-general
