I think we need something better than that. We shouldn't be shooting at pids in a production database: we may get it wrong and take something else down instead. We need a graceful termination of replication and an immediate one. There may be other things we need to add later, so a specific command will be better and allow us to produce messages like "replication isn't running" if used inappropriately. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
