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?
