Hi,
Postgres Version - PostgreSQL 9.6.5 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2, 64-bit
Host - 4.15.0-43-generic #46~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 7 13:31:08 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I am experimenting with a cascaded replication between two datacenters and below is my setup (refer to attached image
ifthe alignment is not proper).
________________________________________
| DC-1 |
| Server-1(master) |
| /\ \ |
| / \Sync \Async |
| / \ \ |
| Server2(slave) Server3(slave) \ |
|____________________________________\__ |
\ VIP
___________________\_____________________
|DC-2 / |
| Server-4 (slave) |
| /\ |
| / \Sync |
| / \ |
|Server5(slave) Server6(slave) |
|________________________________________|
I have setup a virtual IP in DC-1 and the Server-4 in datacenter-2 is configured with upstream server as the virtual ip
address.After the initial set-up everything is working fine.
Then I have stopped the server-1(master) and promoted Server-2 as master. Also configured the VIP in server 2. After
this,in the logs of Server-4, I am seeing the below error:
2019-02-10 21:00:25.708 PST [27602] LOG: restarted WAL streaming at F/EC000000 on timeline 1
2019-02-10 21:00:25.840 PST [27602] LOG: replication terminated by primary server
2019-02-10 21:00:25.840 PST [27602] DETAIL: End of WAL reached on timeline 1 at F/EC7DD488.
2019-02-10 21:00:25.841 PST [14973] LOG: new timeline 2 forked off current database system timeline 1 before current
recoverypoint F/EC7DD4C0
Server-4 did not recover from this error.
After restarting the server-4, the below error is displayed:
2019-02-10 21:01:10.131 PST [23920] FATAL: requested timeline 2 does not contain minimum recovery point F/EC7DD4C0 on
timeline1

2019-02-10 21:01:10.136 PST [23915] LOG: database system is shut down
Any pointers appreciated.
