Hello all, After uninstalling a BDR node, it becomes not possible to join it again. The following log appears in loop: <<< 2016-08-25 10:17:08 [ll101] postgres info [11709]: [14620-1] LOG: starting background worker process "bdr (6287997142852742670,1,19526,)->bdr (6223672436788445259,2," #local4,support 2016-08-25 10:17:08 [ll101] postgres info [11709]: [14621-1] LOG: starting background worker process "bdr (6287997142852742670,1,18365,)->bdr (6223672436788445259,2," #local4,support 2016-08-25 10:17:08 [ll101] postgres info [11709]: [14622-1] LOG: starting background worker process "bdr db: mydb" #local4,support 2016-08-25 10:17:08 [ll101] postgres error [6484]: [14621-1] FATAL: mismatch in worker state, got 0, expected 1 #error,local4,support 2016-08-25 10:17:08 [ll101] postgres error [6486]: [14622-1] FATAL: mismatch in worker state, got 0, expected 1 #error,local4,support
>>> I can not tell how this appends: before removing the node, one of the node was in the 'catchup' state and the lag of data between the 2 nodes was growing, that is why I removed it (the idea was to clean the lagged node and to reattach it again.) Questions: * is it possible to recover from this error without restarting postgres * in case a restart is necessary, how to be sure the postgres restart will work? my fear is that the restart fails, meaning the service will be completely down. Thanks and regards, Sylvain
