No, postgres can check whether this recovery started from the backup or not, but can not check whether standby server or master (got backup from). Once recovery started, backupStartPoint is recorded to pg_control until recovery reaches backup end location, it is not related to any backup server. -------------------------------------------- Jun Ishizuka NTT Software Corporation TEL:045-317-7018 E-Mail: [email protected] -------------------------------------------- -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
