Hello List,

2011-04-20 17:34:40 ETC/GMT FATAL: the database system is starting up
2011-04-20 17:34:41 ETC/GMT FATAL: database system identifier differs
between the primary and standby
2011-04-20 17:34:41 ETC/GMT DETAIL: The primary's identifier is
5592072752411433371, the standby's identifier is 5597615802844953578.

PostgreSQL Version: 9.0.2

Prymary configuration:
wal_level = 'hot_standby' - postgresql.conf
host replication all x.x.x.x/24 trust – pg_hba.conf

Secondary configuration:
Hot_standby=off – postgresql.conf
standby_mode = 'on' – recovery.conf
primary_conninfo = 'host=10.20.9.181 port=5432' – recovery.conf

Please suggest on the above log O/P.

You need to initialize the slave using a hot backup taken on the master.

Re: database system identifier differs between the primary and standby

What does that database system identifier means? Is it related to DB transactions' or unique to a version?

It's an identifier unique to each PostgreSQL database cluster. It's
generated when you run initdb.

Regrettably, it means you didn't follow the documented procedure.

It isn't possible to do it any other way, so those questions are a distraction.

I think they are perfectly good questions. If someone is trying to

Agree those are perfectly good question to ask on -general. (but on
hackers it looks excessive)
Rajib: this is relative to initdb, it produces one key to be able to
check later if postgresql is restoring the good files.

Robert, Please don't add confusion to your signature : PostgreSQL is a

Finally I setup two machines for primary and backup using the following link.

You will probably get better results starting a new thread on
pgsql-general with details about how you have this set up, in
addition to log entries such as you have shown. The pgsql-hackers
list is really not the right place to discuss this, and many people
selectively read messages based on the subject line, so a misleading
subject line may prevent the people best placed to help you from
reading the post.
