We're running differently from Rosser's one-bucardo suggestion--which
does make sense. We're dual master but we need both boxes to be as
identical as possible partly because the process has to be repeatable on
many pairs and also because we bounce our apps on occasion but want the
DBs to stay in sync. So we have bucardo on each box, with each local
bucardo writing to its remote peer. So it's a criss-cross arrangement.
For our purpose, at least, this also gets us a little bit of HA: even if
our application layer and bucardo are down on one box, as long as its
database is running, the fully-up peer box will continue writing its
changes to the partly down box.
I'm not saying our approach is correct, but it's working for us.

Bucardo only needs to be installed on one host, although obviously, that
won't provide HA capability. Typically, in a master-master scenario, it's
installed on one of the masters. In the event either of the masters then
goes down, the Bucardo daemon wouldn't have anything to do anyway, so HA
for it is pretty moot.

In continuation to my previous email?
For example the following approach might be effective:
- install bucardo on master1
- setup replication as follows: master1: master - master2: slave
- verify that replication works
If the above are correct then:
- install bucardo on master2
- setup replication as follows: master2: master - master1: slave
- verify replication works
Will the previous be enough or I am missing a fundamental piece here
(perhaps not needing to run bucardo on two different hosts and use one
setup (say on master one) and two replication streams. How will this handle
failover?

Dear all,
first of all, thanks for the hard work that has been put into bucardo. I
am a novice and I have the following perhaps trivial question:
when wanting to create a master-master setup, do I need to install
bucardo (e.g. bucardo install) on both of the masters? I am on Debian 7
wheezy with bucardo 4.99.7, installed from the Debian repositories. Thanks
in advance for any answers to my perhaps trivial question.
