Hi, a client of mine is obsessed with the idea of having two postgres servers looking at the same partition of data... i think i can configure two servers pointing to the same $PGDATADIR and let one off and the other on but is it possible for load balancing, i mean with the two servers active? obviously one of the two should be only for reading... my thought is that it's not that beneficial because there will be the same set of disks (even being an storage) and i'm not sure is at all possible because the contents of shared memory in both servers will be different... thoughts? any one has tried that configuration? -- Atentamente, Jaime Casanova Soporte y capacitación de PostgreSQL Asesoría y desarrollo de sistemas Guayaquil - Ecuador Cel. +59387171157 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
