Even after the timeout terminates replication connection, a transaction on the master waits for its WAL to be replicated to at least one standby. If you want to finish such a transaction, you have to disable synchronous replication (by changing synchronous_commit or synchronous_standby_names), or start new standby and wait for WAL to be replicated to that new standby. > And why I setup this parameter replication_timeout = 2s and my wal's thread > (on master and server are restarted within 2s)? You are asking whether the master and standby are automatically restarted within 2s after they crash? If so, No. Regards, -- Fujii Masao NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION NTT Open Source Software Center -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
