Ian Barwick	d0f5ee1851	doc: mention not to use --siblings-follow in the repmgrd promote command ... This is noted on the "repmgr standby promote" page but needs repeating on the repmgrd configuration page.	2019-08-13 11:49:52 +09:00
Ian Barwick	09979eaa91	note that "standby follow" requires a primary to be available ... While it's technically possible to have a standby follow another standby while the primary is not available, repmgr will not be able to update its metadata, which will cause Confusion and Chaos. Update the documentation to make this clear, and provide a more helpful error message if this situation occurs. The operation previously failed anyway, but with an unhelpful message about not being able to find a node record.	2019-06-11 15:14:17 +09:00
Ian Barwick	10425d6967	doc: rename file endings from .sgml to .xml ... As they are now XML files. In PostgreSQL itself they remain with the .sgml suffix for backwards compatibility, but that's not important for us.	2019-05-20 15:38:40 +09:00
