Thanks, it's certainly nice that this got simpler. (I'm not in love with the idea of having xlog.c know what flag needs to pass in each case, but I don't see any option that's more convenient.) We weren't quite there however -- namely this patch didn't close problem #8 in Fujii-san rundown. The problem is that when promoting, standbyState is not STANDBY_DISABLED but STANDBY_SNAPSHOT_READY (which is a bit surprising but not something this patch should fix). To fix this I took the StartupCommitTs() call out of that block, so that it runs inconditionally. I also changed the hint message: postgres=# select * from pg_last_committed_xact(); ERROR: could not get commit timestamp data HINT: Make sure the configuration parameter "track_commit_timestamp" is set in the master server. Otherwise this would be very confusing: postgres=# select * from pg_last_committed_xact(); ERROR: could not get commit timestamp data HINT: Make sure the configuration parameter "track_commit_timestamp" is set. postgres=# show track_commit_timestamp ; track_commit_timestamp ------------------------ on (1 fila) -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
