Hello,
I have a configuration in master (A) /slave (B) streaming replication.
I bought a third server (C), and I want to use C as my next master server.
In a first time, i would like to sync C as a slave, and in a second time
i would like to promote C to master, and change my current master (A) to
slave (the third server (B) would be out of the equation)
So I tried to use pg_basebackup on C, either synced on B if possible
(cascading replication), or in A if it is needed, but when i use the
command, nothing happened
My command is : pg_basebackup -D /data/postgresql/9.3/main -P -v -h
MASTER -U replicator -X s
(this command worked when I used it on my current slave)
In view pg_stat_replication on master, I have this (1st is my streaming
on slave, 2nd is the pg_basebackup I try to use)
506 | 5828189 | replicator | walreceiver | 172.25.1.2

backup | 0/0 | 3DD/BDF88000 | 3DD/BDF88000 |
3DD/BDF67C98 | 0 | async
I try to use it on master and slave, but it does the same thing (nothing)
I am wrong in the way I try to use replication ?
Thanks
Thomas
