<title>Description</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<command>repmgr primary register</command> registers a primary node in a
|
|
streaming replication cluster, and configures it for use with repmgr, including
|
|
installing the &repmgr; extension. This command needs to be executed before any
|
|
standby nodes are registered.

<title>Execution</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Execute with the <literal>--dry-run</literal> option to check what would happen without
|
|
actually registering the primary.

<para>
|

<command>repmgr master register</command> can be used as an alias for

<command>repmgr primary register</command>.

<note>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If providing the configuration file location with <literal>-f/--config-file</literal>,
|
|
avoid using a relative path, as &repmgr; stores the configuration file location
|
|
in the repmgr metadata for use when &repmgr; is executed remotely (e.g. during
|
|
<xref linkend="repmgr-standby-switchover">). &repmgr; will attempt to convert the
|
|
a relative path into an absolute one, but this may not be the same as the path you
|
|
would explicitly provide (e.g. <filename>./repmgr.conf</filename> might be converted
|
|
to <filename>/path/to/./repmgr.conf</filename>, whereas you'd normally write
|
|
<filename>/path/to/repmgr.conf</filename>).
