Hi Everydoby

I started using SLONY-I for a simple large DB replication. As my team collegues 
started to change the scope of the project, if I can call it project, I 
realized sometimes constraints in the SLONY usage.

That s why I wanted to know generally , based on the experience of everyone ; 
where did U found CONSTRAINTs or PROBLEMs (generally) while using SLONY in a 
project and not in a simple DB replication. As example for what I am looking 
for is :
- SLONY-I is "good" by handling random() values because I will not have 
different random-Vals in Master or Slave , what is not the case of PGCluster.
- A disadvantage, as example, can be that SLONY-I can not handle a project that 
needs every week or day a new database because, we can not stop a replication , 
but we must add a new set.
- Another example is that one may use lot of sets by a large number of DBs to 
avoid deadlocks, thing that makes the administration more complicated...

I mean according to your projects and your expereince, where did one of you all 
see some problems.


Thanks again
