Description
Configures how the replication daemon of one node connects
to the database of another node. If the replication system is
supposed to use a special backbone network segment, this is the
place to user the special IP addresses or hostnames. An existing
configuration can be overwritten.
The conninfo string must contain all information to connect
to the database as the replication superuser. The names
"server" or "client" have nothing to do
with the particular role of a node within the cluster
configuration. It should be simply viewed as "the
server" has the message or data that "the client is
supposed to get." For a simple 2 node setup, paths into
both directions must be configured.
It does not do any harm to configure path information from
every node to every other node (full cross product). The
connections are not established unless they are required to
actually transfer events or confirmations because of
listen entries or data because of
subscriptions.
- SERVER = ival
Node ID of the database to connect to.
- CLIENT = ival
Node ID of the replication daemon connecting.
- CONNINFO = string
PQconnectdb()
argument to establish the connection.
- CONNRETRY = ival
Number of seconds to wait before another attempt to
connect is made in case the server is unavailable. Default is 10.
