[pgpool-general: 2743] Re: How pgpool identifies Master/Salve!

[Yugo Nagata]

Hi,

In master slave mode with streaming-replication, pgpool issues 
"SELECT pg_is_in_recovery()" to backends in order of backend_hostname_ID
until to find a PostgreSQL returning FALSE, which pgpool regards as the
primary, and others are all regarded as slaves.
