[Postgres-xc-general] necessity of "gtm_ctl reconnect" with PGXC1.0.2+.

[Tomonari K. <kat...@po...>]

Hi,

I'm thinking about how to recover the system after GTM crash.

After GTM stopped, I just start it again.
It works fine with Postgres-XC 1.0.2, and I could do "CREATE TABLE",
"INSERT" some data and "SELECT" them.

But with Postgres-XC 1.0.1, It doesn't work same.
I have to make GTM_proxy reconnect to GTM manually(gtm_ctl reconnect).
In some cases, I have to restart GTM_proxy.

I want to know 2 things about this.
1. I think this new feature(*) is included in Postgres-XC 1.0.2, right?
(*) reconnect doesn't be required with restarting GTM.
2. May I think this feature will never change for future releases?
(I've confirmed the feature is alive in Postgres-XC 1.1dev !)

=============
Environment
=============
2 servers are there.
components are destributed like bellow.

server1 - GTM, GTM_proxy1, Coordinator1, Datanode1
server2 - GTM_proxy2, Coordinator2, Datanode2

==========
reproduce
==========
1. stop GTM manually (kill -9 <PID of GTM>)
2. start GTM again manually.
