No fundamental issues from me regarding the concept of being able to trigger a promotion remotely, so +1. Do we want this capability as well for fallback_promote? My gut tells me no, and that we ought to drop this option at some point in the future, still that's worth mentioning. You may want to move PROMOTE_SIGNAL_FILE in a position where xlogfuncs.c could use it. -- Michael
