Thread: Slony replication

Hi All,

I would like to implement DB replication with Slony but with a slave that will not be always available.
The master would have to check first of the slave's availability and then start syncing...

Is this at all possible, or am I just raving? : )

Kind regards,

Please post this to the Slony-I list: this list is for PgAdmin.

Off the top of my head, I don't think that will work for you - but if 
you read the documentation for Slony, I seem to recall that you need a 
reasonable degree of availability for Slony to work.

Do read the documentation - it's pretty comprehensive, and will save 
bandwidth in the lists.....

Ray.
