Re: PostgresSQL 9.5 and systemd autorestart but without replication.

I am now running PostgreSQL 9.6 master/replica:

Master - Wal sender process OK! 

Standby: Started the server is succesfully but is recovering for several days and the standby database is not accessible! 
Wal receiver streaming is running and is in sync master.

RHEL 7.2, which made the postgresql-9.5.service restart on both virtual servers because of some network problem I am almost sure. 

The problem now is to make the replication server understand that he is not the master now until next failover. If I can not do this by reestablishing
recovery.conf and then restarting the postgresql.-9.5.service then I am running out of ideas. I have to make sure to be able to handle the failover's and the reestablishment of  the "replica" or standby server again when going in production on the physical servers.

Thanks
Poul

Hi !

Hopefully this is a situation in virtuel environments and not on physical
servers with storage on SAN.as replication have to follow up in a autorestart without a manual new basebackup.

What OS are you running?  recovery.conf gets renamed to 'recovery.done' only when a promotion (failover) occurs.  This can happen a number of ways (pg_ctl promote, trigger_file, etc..).  Typically, these commands are not executed automatically for you, you would have had to either install a tool that does auto failover, or the startup scripts in your OS did something (highly doubtful).

Does anyone have experience with replication on physical servers(slaves)?
 
Thanks

Thank you for fast respons.

No. The recovery.conf has now replace a recovery.done file on the slave. 
No errors in the pg_log. I have not earlier experienced this situation. 
The feature of autorestart is really nice. 
BTW: I do not quite understand why the recovery.conf are replaced with a recovery.done file.

Thanks

This morning I noticed that my 2 PG virtual servers had made an automatic
restart at exactly the same time 00:00. The 2 servers is running and accepting connections but no WALL sender and no WALL receicver is running.
Why don't replication follow up! 
Do I have to make a new pg_basebackup from primarily to replica?
OS: RHEL 7.2

Is the recovery.conf file still present and valid in $PGDATA on the slave? Any errors in the slave's pg_log directory concerning the replication?
