Thanks Alvaro. Since this happens during the multi-master bdr setup, could the other postgres instance within bdr, begin up and running while we restart this one, delete this one's config? What do you mean split-brain?

Thanks

So how do you recreate the postgresql.conf file?

Maybe you have some HA tool that starts up another server, and delete
this one's config file in order to prevent split-brain.
