Hi All!

I have a question with regards to promoting a slave.  In my current setup, I
have two nodes, the Master and the Slave.  Replication works perfectly, however
I need to plan for outages of the Master.  In testing, if I kill the master
server, I need a way (manual intervention is fine) to get the slave up and
running so you can access the database.  Currently if I kill the Master and
stop the Slon processes on the slave, I can read from the database, but can
still not write to it.  I found the script on this page
(http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7834 under section "promote.sh") but I
can't seem to get it to work.  Any ideas?

Regards,

Aaron
