I modified code & doc to address this. In code, pg_rewind will error out
for the local case.

It seems that we could further disabling recovery info setting code for the
'remote' test case?

-   my $port_standby = $node_standby->port;
-   $node_master->append_conf(
-       'postgresql.conf', qq(
-primary_conninfo='port=$port_standby'
-));
+   if ($test_mode ne "remote")
+   {
+       my $port_standby = $node_standby->port;
+       $node_master->append_conf(
+           'postgresql.conf',
+           qq(primary_conninfo='port=$port_standby'));

-   $node_master->set_standby_mode();
+       $node_master->set_standby_mode();
+   }

Thanks.
