We do run a hot standby, which also serves some queries. I'm trying to decide next steps, should a problem reappear, and one possibility is to switch over to the hot standby. That wouldn't be

Something we do at work is to use database replication to form a chain of three database hosts: alpha-beta-gamma. If something goes wrong with the alpha host, we simply take it offline, promote

Looking forward to cat pics! Hoping you get that misbehaving database under control. :-) -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is bound up in

Hi All, The database is misbehaving again. I need to restart the database machine to see if that fixes it. The site will be down for about 5-10 minutes, starting at 8:50am Pacific Time. Thanks,Mark

Hi All, I need to restart the database because of a potential corruption issue, and it cannot wait. I will take the site down in 5 minutes. It should only be down for one minute. Thanks,Mark
