Good day,

We're getting comfortable with 4.99.6 (git)* and Postgres in our high-availability master-master application. We have an edge case to handle which I would like to bounce some ideas off you guys. If we have swap sync established, cruising along, and the peer goes away, then Bucardo does a great job spooling up changes until the peer comes back, and then it pushes them across. Perfect. No question here.

The question case starts with a bunch of data on Box1, but Box2 is blank and I'm installing afresh. I would like to ultimately establish a swap sync and get caught up. I can do *bucardo install* on both sides, but I can't do *bucardo add sync* until Box2 is up and installed, meanwhile I'm still making new inserts on Box1_.__
__
__Idea 1._ Can we start with approx: *bucardo **add sync onetimecopy=2* to get caught up, then do *bucardo update sync *to turn it off and switch to regular swap sync mode. * If we do that, how will we tell when it's done copying? Do a bunch of queries and count rows, etc?

_Idea 2._ Alternatively, is there a way to start accumulating deltas but don't provide anywhere to send them until later, then add and activate a sync to drain them to the new peer?

Thanks for any thoughts!
