Known issues in repmgr
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
* When running repmgr against a remote machine, operations that start
|
|
the database server using the ``pg_ctl`` command may accidentally
|
|
terminate after their associated ssh session ends.
|
|
|
|
* PGPASSFILE may not be passed to pg_basebackup
|
|
|
|
|
|
Planned feature improvements
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
* Use 'primary' instead of 'master' in documentation and log output
|
|
for consistency with PostgreSQL documentation. See also commit
|
|
870b0a53b627eeb9aca1fc14cbafe25b5beafe12.
|
|
|
|
* A better check which standby did receive most of the data
|
|
|
|
* Make the fact that a standby may be delayed a factor in the voting
|
|
algorithm
|
|
|
|
* include support for delayed standbys
|
|
|
|
* Create the repmgr user/database on "master register".
|
|
|
|
* Use pg_basebackup for the data directory, and ALSO rsync for the
|
|
configuration files.
|
|
|
|
* If no configuration file supplied, search in sensible default locations
|
|
(currently: current directory and `pg_config --sysconfdir`); if
|
|
possible this should include the location provided by the package,
|
|
if installed.
|
|
|
|
* repmgrd: if connection to the upstream node fails on startup, optionally
|
|
retry for a certain period before giving up; this will cover cases when
|
|
e.g. primary and standby are both starting up, and the standby comes up
|
|
before the primary. See github issue #80.
|
|
|
|
* make old master node ID available for event notification commands
|
|
(See github issue #80).
|
|
|
|
* use "primary/standby" terminology in place of "master/slave" for consistency
|
|
with main PostrgreSQL usage
|
|
|
|
* repmgr standby clone: possibility to use barman instead of performing a new base backup
|
|
|
|
* possibility to transform a failed master into a new standby with pg_rewind
|
|
|
|
* "repmgr standby switchover" to promote a standby in a controlled manner
|
|
and convert the existing primary into a standby
|
|
|
|
* make repmgrd more robust
|
|
|
|
Usability improvements
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
* repmgrd: on failover, explicitly log which node is now being followed
|
|
|
|
* repmgr: add explicit --log-level flag, repurpose --verbose flag to
|
|
show extra detailed/repetitive output only (see item below too)
|
|
|
|
* debug output: show some repetitive output only if --verbose flag set to prevent
|
|
excessive log growth
