The intent is that a system that is the "origin" for replication changes (e.g. - a database where you'll be collecting INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE information to replicate elsewhere) would run in the "origin" role, normally. The distinction from a practical perspective will take place when stored functions that implement "replication stuff" detect what role the system is in, and may behave differently. -- (format nil "~S@~S" "cbbrowne" "acm.org") http://linuxdatabases.info/info/multiplexor.html Rules of the Evil Overlord #7.
