Hi
I've implemented replication to a warm standby using wal
logshipping now. The only remaining problem is that there
just how exactly does this work? are you constantly firing up the
standby server?
Postgres on the standby server is running constantly. The restore_command
is a shell script that waits indefinitely if a wal is requested that doesn't
exist yet. A periodic cron-jobs (every minute) syncs the archived wals over
to the standby maschine, where they are eventually picked by the restore_command.
