Hello, 

I've created synchronous replication between Primary and Secondary server and 
put pacemaker + PAF over. Client is doing some stress tests (switching nodes, 
disabling particular node, etc) and it's second time when this kind of problem 
occoures : 

2020-12-18 14:03:46.658 CET [unknown] [28787]ERROR: requested starting point 
F/A2000000 on timeline 39 is not in this server's history 
2020-12-18 14:03:46.658 CET [unknown] [28787]DETAIL: This server's history 
forked from timeline 39 at F/A1023338. 

questions: 
1. what does this mean ? How this can happen ? Does this mean that for some 
"point in time" both servers were primary ? 
2. in xxx.history files I find the following rows: 
43 F/A60000A0 no recovery target specified 
44 F/A70000A0 no recovery target specified 
45 F/A80000A0 no recovery target specified 

again: what does this mean ? 

3. general question: can anyone suggest deep explanation of timelines and 
history files to understand how this postgresql nature works ? 



Many thx 
Marcin
