Hello All,
I am interested in running Postgres on Solaris using SunCluster. I am
hoping that someone this list has experience with this configuration.
To be honest I am having a difficult time understanding the concept of
Postgres clusters. I originally began looking at Linux HA, I would
like to run on Suns’ T5220 and I at a loss to how well this setup runs.
There is an ongoing project to integrate Sun Cluster (aka Solaris
Cluster) with Postgres warm standby. I recently tested the agent with
Postgres running in two Solaris zones on a single node, and the
automatic failover worked quite well. I haven't tried the two-node
config yet, but it should work. To get more info, check out this project
