Hi, Friends, <br> I've two questions:<br> 1. What's the real meanings of "Replication mode"? I noticed there is no much more explaination at<a href="http://www.pgpool.net/pgpool-web/pgpool-II/doc/pgpool-en.html" class="external text" rel="nofollow"> pgpool-II manual (English) </a>, what's the difference between "Replication mode" and "Master-slave mode"? Should I understand "Replication mode" as "pgpool-ii sends DML sentences just like Inserts to two backends postgresql?"<br>
2. I know I could configure Postgresql9.1 warm-standby using file-based log shiping, stream replication or Synchronous Replication. From this tutorial <a href="http://www.pgpool.net/pgpool-web/contrib_docs/simple_sr_setting_3.1/index.html" class="external text" rel="nofollow">For pgpool-II 3.1 and PostgreSQL 9.1</a>, I know how to configure pgpool supporting stream replication between master and warm-standby. My question is it seems pgpool-ii doesn't support file-based log shiping method between master and warm-standby, is that right? Because I could not select Master-slave mode for it only support slony or stream. And I also don't know whether should I use replication mode in pgpool.conf.<br>
Thanks!<br>peng<br><a href="http://blog.sciencenet.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=419883&do=blog&quickforward=1&id=540919" target="_blank"></a>
