Just started playing with BDR. Originally setup the environment on two separate servers as per the quick start guid and used the sql commands to add nodes. Moving on to command line, I am running into some issues.
I am sure I am just overlooking something really simple. But, on the primary node I created two databases and created two groups. one within each database. No issues so far. However, now on the 2nd node, I want to add it to the cluster using bdr_init_copy. It partially works but then it dies as you can see below.
/var/lib/pgsql/9.4-bdr/data
-bash-4.1$ rm -rf *
-bash-4.1$ bdr_init_copy -D /var/lib/pgsql/9.4-bdr/data -n node2 -d 'host=10.5.101.176 port=5432' --local-dbname='host=10.5.101.179 port=5432'
