Hi,
I wondered if there were any software packages floating around to
manage servers using streaming replication with Pg?

ie. To handle failing over and adjusting the config to promote a
slave; and performing the steps of syncing and restarting to bring up
a new slave.


that sort of thing would normally be done with a cluster failover
manaagement tool like Heartbeat from the LInux-HA project.

*nods*
I'm familiar with heartbeat and similar utils to manage the general concept of, well, failing-over -- but was wondering someone had already scripted the process of adjusting the config files and rsyncing files during a pg_backup_.. stuff.

The repmgr utility looks like exactly what I was looking for though, and should be suitable for connecting to heartbeat, et al.

Thanks to both of you,
Toby
