Heikki Linnakangas ec9ee9381f Enhance standby documentation.
Original patch by Fujii Masao, with heavy editing and bitrot-fixing
after my other commit.
2010-03-31 20:35:09 +00:00
Heikki Linnakangas 259f60e9b6 Mention in the docs that if special keywords like "sameuser" and
"replication" are quoted in pg_hba.conf, they lose their special meaning.

Heikki Linnakangas 991bfe11d2 Enhance documentation of the build-in standby mode, explaining the retry
loop in standby mode, trying to restore from archive, pg_xlog and
streaming.

Move sections around to make the high availability chapter more
coherent: the most prominent part is now a "Log-Shipping Standby Servers"
section that describes what a standby server is (like the old
"Warm Standby Servers for High Availability" section), and how to
set up a warm standby server, including streaming replication, using the
built-in standby mode. The pg_standby method is desribed in another
section called "Alternative method for log shipping", with the added
caveat that it doesn't work with streaming replication.

Peter Eisentraut 29ccc32c30 Separate targets "make docs" and "make install-docs" for the documentation

Also, fix vpathsearch function to work when calling make install-docs
without previous make docs.

Alvaro Herrera be8cebc717 Prevent ALTER USER f RESET ALL from removing the settings that were put there
by a superuser -- "ALTER USER f RESET setting" already disallows removing such a
setting.

Apply the same treatment to ALTER DATABASE d RESET ALL when run by a database
owner that's not superuser.

Itagaki Takahiro a887c486d5 Each worker thread will have its own log file in pgbench to avoid interleaved
writes. The first worker still uses "pgbench_log.<pid>" for the name, but
additional workers use "pgbench_log.<pid>.<serial-number>" instead.

Reported by Greg Smith.

Simon Riggs f42ddc4772 Clarify docs about database parameter in streaming replication primary_conninfo.

Heikki Linnakangas c21ac0b58e Add restartpoint_command option to recovery.conf. Fix bug in %r handling
in recovery_end_command, it always came out as 0 because InRedo was
cleared before recovery_end_command was executed. Also, always take
ControlFileLock when reading checkpoint location for %r.

The recovery_end_command bug and the missing locking was present in 8.4
as well, that part of this patch will be backported separately.
