Hi,

I have two test DB servers, replicated. I'm simulating a failure on the main 
one, by turning off postgres and slony, then, on the other:

slonik <<_EOF_
    cluster name = $CLUSTERNAME;

    node 1 admin conninfo = 'dbname=$MASTERDBNAME host=$MASTERHOST user=$REPLICATIONUSER';
    node 2 admin conninfo = 'dbname=$SLAVEDBNAME host=$SLAVEHOST user=$REPLICATIONUSER';

    failover (id = 2, backup node = 1);
_EOF_

I get:

<stdin>:6: NOTICE:  failedNode: set 2 has no other direct receivers - move now
INFO   localListenThread: got restart notification - signal scheduler

And slonik never returns.

The log shows it keeps trying to connect to the failed node.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!


Regards.

Fernando
