* 9.2 Observer node for streaming replication

I have a master and a slave running streaming replication between the two
servers. I would like to setup some kind of third machine to play the role
of observer node to monitor the replication and do the automatic fail over.
 However, I can't find any documentation or suggestions on such an
implementation. Is it possible to do with 9.2.4 or will I need to rely on
some sort of F5 load balancer to handle the auto failover?

Depends on your OS. We do this all the time with our HAC setups and we 
don't need any kind of load balancer to pull it off.

Joshua,

We are running centos 6.2. Could you provide some insight or point in the
direction of your methodology for such implementation?

Thanks

JT
