Would that more directly address you concerns? min_standby_grace_period (ms) SIGHUP -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

When streaming drops for some reason we revert to scanning the archive for files. There is clearly two modes of operation. So it makes sense that you might want to set different times for the parameter in each case. We might think of those modes as "connected" and "degraded" modes rather than streaming and file shipping. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
