[pgpool-general: 5877] Re: failover command

[chris]

Thank you for responding to my post. I do understand what you're saying, 
that's why I don't understand why I'm getting the old master node when I 
use %H, backend0 is ...0 backend1 is ...1. When I test the failover I'm 
getting:

ssh -Tpostgres at ...0  /usr/pgsql-9.5/bin/pg_ctl -D
/var/lib/pgsql/9.6/data promote


when instead I want it to be:


ssh -Tpostgres at ...1  /usr/pgsql-9.6/bin/pg_ctl -D
/var/lib/pgsql/9.6/data promote


Also why would it change my directory path from pgsql-9.6 to pgsql-9.5 when that is coded in (not a variable)?

Thanks again
