Hi All,

Let's consider the following case: WAL segments from a master have been shipped to N warm standby servers, and now the master fails. Using this or that mechanism, one of the warm standbys takes over and becomes the new master. Now the question is what to do with the other N-1 warm standbys. By the failure, all N warm standbys were the same exact copies of the master. So at least in theory, the N-1 warm standbys left can be fed with WAL segments from the new master. Do you think it will work in practice? Are there any pitfalls?

Thanks!

Yar
