permission is for PostgreSQL's streaming replication and doesn't

- When cloning a standby, why do I need to provide the connection parameters
|

for the primary server on the command line, not in the configuration file?
|

|

Cloning a standby is a one-time action; the role of the server being cloned
|
||||
from could change, so fixing it in the configuration file would create
|
||||
confusion. If `repmgr` needs to establish a connection to the primary
|
||||
server, it can retrieve this from the `repl_nodes` table or if necessary
|
||||
scan the replication cluster until it locates the active primary.
