By referring to the docs: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/warm-standby.html#SYNCHRONOUS-REPLICATION Synchronous replication gives the insurance that a transaction has been flushed to the disk of the standby which is in sync, aka the one with the lowest priority depending on the nodes currently connected. This does not ensure that the transaction has been *replayed* on the standby. You are sure that the transaction data is available. Hence if you wish to know that a transaction in a standby is running a transaction with enough data replayed, you should make the WAL position of the master necessary for the transaction of the standby something that your application is aware of. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
