Re: Automatic restore corruption problem

Hi,

The master server : 10.10.11.1 is p2prddnmdbm
I got a real time slave with the recovery process : p2prddnmdbs

I have a third copy with a H-24 data : p2prddnmdbc
On this server I need to have the copy of the master at 23H00 every day.
So I'm using the script send before.
During the day the buisness modify the database on server p2prddnmdbc and that's why I use a rsync --delete every night to get a clean copy of the prod server.

So what's the best way to do the restore ?

Thanks

Matthieu

Hi,

I had no recovery.conf on this server because I launch my replication every night I need a H-24 copy database.


On your first email, you said: "I have a script for restoring a database every night to an other postgresql database". A restore is not replication, even it's a PITR restore.

Still on your first email, you execute pg_start_backup() and pg_stop_backup() on p2prddnmdbm, and the rsync on 10.10.11.1. I suppose p2prddnmdbm and 10.10.11.1 are the same server?

This is my recovery.conf
root@p2prddnmdbc:/var/lib/postgresql# cat recovery.conf
standby_mode = 'off'
primary_conninfo = 'host=10.10.11.1 port=5432 user=replicator password=XXXXXX'
trigger_file = '/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/trigger'
restore_command = 'cp /mnt/p2prddnmdbm_pg_xlog/%f %p'
root@p2prddnmdbc:/var/lib/postgresql#


You don't need primary_conninfo if you only want to restore your database. Though that isn't your issue right now.
 
But with or without a recovery.conf file I can't start the database service :
root@p2prddnmdbc:/var/lib/postgresql# /etc/init.d/postgresql start

 failed!


In your previous email, you had the startup process waiting for a file. These logs can't be the good ones.

What you should probably do is tell us exactly what you want to do, and state what you do right now, and what logs you get, and what processes are on the server. That would help us to help you.

Thanks

Hi thank for your reply

My target is to give a database for buisness testing query and they are modify the database during the buisness day.

Now I got this error if I keep the file backup_label :

root@p2prddnmdbc:/var/lib/postgresql/9.3/main# /etc/init.d/postgresql start
[....] Starting PostgreSQL 9.3 database server: main[....] The PostgreSQL server failed to start.

 failed!


If I put the recovery.conf the database is waiting for the wal to relaunch the replication.

postgres 27817  0.7  0.9 631212 39892 ?        S    09:55   0:00 /usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/bin/postgres -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.3/main

root@p2prddnmdbc:/var/lib/postgresql/9.3/main# su - postgres
postgres@p2prddnmdbc:~$ psql energycomm
psql: FATAL:  the database system is starting up

Have you got an idea to stop the replication process and start the database ?


What did you put in the recovery.conf file? (hint: standby_mode must be off)

 
Kind regards
Matthieu

Sure. Don't remove the backup_label file, and add the recovery.conf file.
