Subject: pgpool with master/slave
Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2010 15:10:35 -0400 (EDT)
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

I have added the attached documentation patch to explain how
master/slave can be combined with pgpool to avoid the problems with
non-deterministic functions.  You can read more details here:

       SQL queries are broadcast (and not actual modified rows).  If
       this is unacceptable, either the middleware or the application
       must query such values from a single server and then use those
!      values in write queries.  Also, care must be taken that all
       transactions either commit or abort on all servers, perhaps
       using two-phase commit (<xref linkend="sql-prepare-transaction">
       and <xref linkend="sql-commit-prepared">.
