When they connect to the master to get the stream, don't they in effect, already talk to the primary with the XLogRecPtr being relayed? Can the connection IP, port, XLogRecPtr and request time of the standby be stored from this communication to track the states of each standby? They would in effect be registering upon WAL stream request... and no doubt this is a horrifically naive view of how it works. -- Thom Brown Twitter: @darkixion IRC (freenode): dark_ixion Registered Linux user: #516935 -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
