[posted again as it found it's way into another thread] Hi people, I intend to set up two slave servers, one using WAL shipping and one using Slony I. Are there any good tools, or scripts that'll help us check that both replication methods are working? I know theres Nagios - but what does this actually allow us to monitor? Also if I want to make backups from the slaves to save master downtime / load what are my options?
