Ian Barwick c3a1969f55 docs: convert command reference sections to <refentry> format
Note that most entries still need a bit more tidying up, consistent structuring,
provision of more examples etc.

<title>Description</title>
<para>
Displays information about each registered node in the replication cluster. This
command polls each registered server and shows its role (<literal>primary</literal> /
<literal>standby</literal> / <literal>bdr</literal>) and status. It polls each server
directly and can be run on any node in the cluster; this is also useful when analyzing
connectivity from a particular node.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Execution</title>
<para>
This command requires either a valid <filename>repmgr.conf</filename> file or a database
connection string to one of the registered nodes; no additional arguments are needed.
</para>
<para>
To show database connection errors when polling nodes, run the command in
<literal>--verbose</literal> mode.

<programlisting>
$ repmgr -f /etc/repmgr.conf cluster show
ID | Name | Role | Status | Upstream | Location | Connection string
----+-------+---------+-----------+----------+----------+-----------------------------------------
1 | node1 | primary | * running | | default | host=db_node1 dbname=repmgr user=repmgr
2 | node2 | standby | running | node1 | default | host=db_node2 dbname=repmgr user=repmgr

<title>Notes</title>
<para>
The column <literal>Role</literal> shows the expected server role according to the
&repmgr; metadata. <literal>Status</literal> shows whether the server is running or unreachable.
If the node has an unexpected role not reflected in the &repmgr; metadata, e.g. a node was manually
promoted to primary, this will be highlighted with an exclamation mark, e.g.:
<programlisting>
$ repmgr -f /etc/repmgr.conf cluster show
ID | Name | Role | Status | Upstream | Location | Connection string
----+-------+---------+----------------------+----------+----------+-----------------------------------------
1 | node1 | primary | ? unreachable | | default | host=db_node1 dbname=repmgr user=repmgr
2 | node2 | standby | ! running as primary | node1 | default | host=db_node2 dbname=repmgr user=repmgr
3 | node3 | standby | running | node1 | default | host=db_node3 dbname=repmgr user=repmgr
WARNING: following issues were detected
node "node1" (ID: 1) is registered as an active primary but is unreachable
node "node2" (ID: 2) is registered as standby but running as primary</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Node availability is tested by connecting from the node where
<command>repmgr cluster show</command> is executed, and does not necessarily imply the node
is down. See <xref linkend="repmgr-cluster-matrix"> and <xref linkend="repmgr-cluster-crosscheck"> to get
a better overviews of connections between nodes.

<title>Options</title>
<para>
<command>repmgr cluster show</command> accepts an optional parameter <literal>--csv</literal>, which
outputs the replication cluster's status in a simple CSV format, suitable for
parsing by scripts:
<programlisting>
$ repmgr -f /etc/repmgr.conf cluster show --csv
1,-1,-1
2,0,0
3,0,1</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
The columns have following meanings:
<itemizedlist spacing="compact" mark="bullet">
<listitem>
<simpara>
node ID
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
availability (0 = available, -1 = unavailable)
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
recovery state (0 = not in recovery, 1 = in recovery, -1 = unknown)
</simpara>
