I know MySQL has (at least I already built a master/slave database with mySQL, which does replication via network). the only thing I think you should take care is if the slave postgres will be read/write too. In case of MySQL, iirc, it should has a read-only slave. -- --- Best Regards Carlos Eduardo Maiolino -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
