As I am aware, you would have two options depending on your configuration: 1. Change the primary_conninfo value on the second standby's recovery.conf to point to the standby that has been promoted to master. However, I think this would require that instance to be rebooted for the configuration changes to take effect 2. Modify the DNS entries so that the host value in primary_conninfo points to the new master rather than the old master
Does anyone know of another way? *Will J.
