I'm just comparing your idea (i.e., set synchronous_standbys on each possible master) with my idea (i.e., set replication_mode on each standby). Though your idea has the advantage described in the following post, it seems to make the setup of the standbys more complicated, as I described. So I'm trying to generate better idea. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2010-08/msg00007.php Regards, -- Fujii Masao NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION NTT Open Source Software Center -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
