RESTART NODE

Name

RESTART NODE --  Restart Slony-I node

Synopsis

RESTART NODE (options);

Description

Causes an eventually running replication daemon on the specified node to shutdown and restart itself. Theoretically, this command should be obsolete. In practice, TCP timeouts can delay critical configuration changes to actually happen in the case where a former forwarding node failed and needs to be bypassed by subscribers.

ID = ival

Node ID of the node to restart.

Example

  RESTART NODE ( ID = 2 );
    

Locking Behaviour

No application-visible locking should take place.

Version Information

This command was introduced in Slony-I 1.0; its use should be unnecessary as of version 1.0.5.
