Hello all, Thanks for your response. The example shown by Charles Duffy, is quite impressive. Actually i built my replication based on this. But, i want to test the failover. In the example shown by Charles, mentions 'a trigger file' as it says: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *touch ~/pg82demo/trigger* ** *This should immediately cause the slave to finish processing archived segments, exit recovery mode, and come up ready for use. * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- what shold be the content of the trigger file. How do we cause the slave to finish the processing of the archived segments, exit the recovery mode and come up ready for use??? Please help in the the FAILOVER of the primary and promoting the slave to the primary mode.
It's an empty file -- doesn't have to have anything in it. The script simply checks to see if the file exists, and if it does, the recovery loop is stopped.
