Обсуждение: Automatic failover
I have setup replication using repmgr. Wanted to know how much time the slave node will take to become new primary ?? If any document, can someone please share of auto failover. With automatic failover, how much time the slave takes to become new primary .
Thanks..

And the (new) replica is usually in sync again in less than about 5 seconds or so. Cheers, Paul

Firstly, there will be the interval between the primary failing and whatever failover system you are using deciding to make a failover decision. This will be configurable, and will always be a trade-off between speed and certainty. Secondly it will depend on what work the standby needs to do before it completes the promotion process. Typically the standby will promote very quickly, but e.g. if it has a bunch of WAL to replay first, the process will take longer.
