| Summary | 0000743: Enabling pgpool service to start automatically as documentation with Health Check set cause issues when rebooting | ||||
| Description | I was unsure where to reflect my observations. Following the documentation https://www.pgpool.net/docs/latest/en/html/example-cluster.html - it outlined “We set pgpool-II to start automatically on all servers" , "systemctl enable pgpool.service" What I’ve observed is that when the nodes within cluster are rebooted (e.g. patching cycle activity) , pgpool failover is triggered and I’ve observed inconsistent results causing an unusable cluster. I’ve read a few articles that strongly suggest not to start pgpool automatically. So why my question, what is best practices around this subject? | ||||

If you set the auto-start of Pgpool-II, you need to change the "search_primary_node_timeout" to an appropriate value that you can start the PostgreSQL after the server has been started. Pgpool-II will fail and trigger failover, if it can't connect to the PostgreSQL on the backend during the "search_primary_node_timeout". If you don't want to set "search_primary_node_timeout" to a bigger value, I recommend that you disable auto starting for Pgpool-II. |
