NAME¶
RESTART NODE - Restart Slony-I node
SYNOPSIS¶
RESTART NODE options;
DESCRIPTION¶
Causes an eventually running replication daemon (slon process) 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.
SLONIK EVENT CONFIRMATION BEHAVIOUR ¶
Slonik does not wait for event confirmations before performing this command
This command was introduced in Slony-I 1.0; frequent use became unnecessary as
of version 1.0.5. There are, however, occasional cases where it is necessary
to interrupt a slon process, and this allows this to be scripted via
slonik.
