Thanks much on your quick reply. If I understood it correctly, If I am setting up it as only dedicated primary server then no changes in conf file required. If I will have to set up the new stand by to point this new primary then I will have to make the configuration file changes. Thanks Again. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pg-ctl-promote-tp5787858p5788115.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - admin mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
