Hi all, I've been searching for a way to initialize a new Hot Standby node with Streaming Replication withou the need for stop or even restarting the master. Of course the master is already with the needed SR configs.
I know I have to use pg_start_backup/pg_stop_backup, but i'd like some tips, or a link to some tutorial, with the order of the steps. I assume will be something like: - configure Slave for SR - pg_start_backup() - rsync PGDATA to slave - start PG on the slave - pg_stop_backup() Anything i'm thinking wrong? Thanks in advance, Gabriel
