Small Clarification. I have gone through the documentation. I did not find
any thing related to start ans stop replication after the replication is
setup

1. If I shutdown the primary
2. Shutdown the slave
3. start Primary
4. start slave

Will this automatically catch up the streaming. Can you please comment?

Regards

Hi All -

Need some help. We have been using postgres 9.0.4 for our
production environment for some time. Today we are going to restart the
Solaris servers.

We have streaming on . My question is how to handle the streaming
when we start the database on the servers.

Can you please give me some steps. I have actually used the
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Streaming_Replication to set up the
replication.

Appreciate your help

Regards

So long as you leave your recovery.conf file in place, and don't loose any needed wal files between steps 3 and 4 (or can recover them from an archive), then the answer is yes.
