Hi!
I'm testing online recovery (multimaster replication) and there is an issue related to it. I made a simple script which writes data to my database during the whole test. In the middle of the test I switch off one of the PostgreSQL nodes and when it's back I start online recovery. Then I check the data on both nodes. Everething is ok except fields which have 'serial' data type. They are not the same. Here is an example:

node01:

  id  | data
------+-------
...
 1293 | aaaaa
 1294 | aaaaa
 1295 | aaaaa
 1296 | aaaaa
 1297 | aaaaa
 1298 | aaaaa
 1299 | aaaaa
 1300 | aaaaa
 1301 | aaaaa
 1333 | aaaaa
 1334 | aaaaa
 1335 | aaaaa
 1336 | aaaaa
 1337 | aaaaa
 1338 | aaaaa
 1339 | aaaaa
 1340 | aaaaa
 1341 | aaaaa
 1342 | aaaaa
(1249 rows)

node02:

  id  | data
------+-------
...
 1293 | aaaaa
 1294 | aaaaa
 1295 | aaaaa
 1296 | aaaaa
 1297 | aaaaa
 1298 | aaaaa
 1299 | aaaaa
 1300 | aaaaa
 1301 | aaaaa
 1302 | aaaaa
 1303 | aaaaa
 1304 | aaaaa
 1305 | aaaaa
 1306 | aaaaa
 1307 | aaaaa
 1308 | aaaaa
 1309 | aaaaa
 1310 | aaaaa
 1311 | aaaaa
(1249 rows)

As you see the number of rows on both nodes is the same, but values in the id field (which has 'serial' data type) differ from each other. I looked through pgpool documentation and found that 'insert_lock = true' would probably solve my problem. But it didn't. Could you tell me, is there a way to get fields with 'serial' data type to be equal after online recovery on all nodes.
