There is a possibility of making the old master standby if you have promoted standby after clean-shutting down the master. I I tested this in 9.2.x and later versions. This is a manual process in 9.2, i think it is the same in 9.1.x version as well. The process is - - Ensure master and standby are in sync before switching over - Promote standby - build recovery.conf at old master with the parameter recovery_target_timeline set to 'latest' - When you start the old master, it will ask for timeline history files which you need to manually transfer from new master - The old master must become standby Hope this helps and works in 9.1.x Regards, Venkata B N Fujitsu Australia
