Just got a report of a replication issue with 9.2.8 from a community member:
Here's the sequence: 1) A --> B (sync rep) 2) Shut down B 3) Shut down A 4) Start up B as a master 5) Start up A as sync replica of B 6) A successfully joins B as a sync replica, even though its transaction log is 1016 bytes *ahead* of B. 7) Transactions written to B all hang 8) Xlog on A is now corrupt, although the database itself is OK Now, the above sequence happened because of the user misunderstanding what sync rep really means. However, A should not have been able to connect with B in replication mode, especially in sync rep mode; that should have failed. Any thoughts on why it didn't? I'm trying to produce a test case ... -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
