Dear List,
Firstly thanks to the postgresql global development team for releasing postgresql
with such a great enterprise feature of SR & HS.
As an enduser i setup SR based on http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Streaming_Replication
The master & standby are both powerful machines and are on same gigabit switch.
Things worked as expected I updated 1000's of records in single txn and saw them
appearing on the standby instantly.
Then i wanted to see the impact of shutting down the standby momentarily . This apparently
failed with following messages in standby logs:
DETAIL: last completed transaction was at log time 2010-10-02 20:57:26.17677+05:30
LOG: restartpoint starting: time
LOG: received smart shutdown request
FATAL: terminating walreceiver process due to administrator command
LOG: restartpoint complete: wrote 1568 buffers (0.3%); write=146.237 s, sync=0.251 s, total=146.489 s

I confess that i have not RT(Fine)M yet .
