Hello.

I am using "load_balance_mode = off".

When postgresql service on standby node is down, pgpool log file on both
nodes shows every 10 second:

2016-06-24 15:12:52: pid 5256: ERROR:  Failed to check replication time lag

If I execute sql sentence "show pool nodes", then failover command is
executed on standby node.

I disable watchdog ("use_watchdog = off"), then failover command is
executed on standby server when postgresql service is down.

Is this working as expected?
