我希望有人可以帮助我解决 WAL 运输和热备问题。我的备用系统愉快地运行了数周，然后突然开始寻找不存在的 .history 文件。然后它崩溃了，如果不重建备用数据库，我就无法成功重新启动它。

两个系统都运行 CentOS 4.5 和 postgres 8.4.1。他们使用 NFS 将生产环境中的 WAL 文件存储在备用服务器上。

有任何想法吗？我什至不知道 .history 文件是什么，而且（大部分优秀的）文档对此都不是很清楚。

PS。我希望我正在运行虚拟机，这样我就可以使用链接文本，而不必担心任何这种应用程序级别的 HA 废话:-)

更新：这是大约此时来自备用服务器的一些日志。看起来有些东西使服务器停止恢复并上线，但我不知道是什么。我很确定没有任何东西可以创建触发器文件。

我能够通过更新我的两台 PostgreSQL 服务器上的 CentOS 操作系统来解决这个问题。因此，我认为这是某种潜在网络错误的症状。

一种完全不同的 HA 方法可能是将 PG 数据库托管在两台机器共享的DRBD设备上。

您的复制副本在某个时候上线。“00000002.history”正在寻找时间线 00000002 的历史文件，而您的其余日志以 00000001 开头，这是原始时间线。

我会在它开始查找历史文件之前检查您的 PostgreSQL 日志，以查看是否有任何迹象表明数据库联机，即使是片刻。

您是否使用了自己的恢复脚本/程序？如果是 - 请不要这样做。使用 PostgreSQL contrib 中的 pg_standby。

否则 - 只需忽略 .history 文件。
