Обсуждение: Cluster fencing tool/software for PostgreSQL cluster with streaming replication

Hi Vikas!

I used to see you on the mailing list for another database, that shall 
remain unnamed but starts with the letter "O". To answer your question: 
I have very good experience with Veritas Cluster on both Linux and 
Solaris (or was it Slowaris? I forgot the exact spelling :). It's an 
industry standard fail-over cluster and Veritas provides an excellent 
support for it.

Regards

Look at Pacemaker, pro support and devel by both RedHat and Suse.

Depending on the stack you want to build, you might want to use the pgsql
official resource agent or PAF (https://clusterlabs.github.io/PAF/). This
specific agent might not be supported by RH/Suse though.
