stolon Files

New features

• Add a stolonctl command to force fail a keeper (#546)
• Overcome PostgreSQL synchronous replication limitation that could cause lost transactions under some events (#514)
• Users can now define archiveRecoverySettings in the cluster spec of a standby cluster. One of the possible use cases is to feed the standby cluster only with archived logs without streaming replication. (See Upgrade Notes) (#543)
• Keeper: remove trailing new lines from provided passwords (#548)

Bug Fixes

• Sort keepers addresses in pg_hba.conf to avoid unneeded postgres instance reloads (#558)
• Set recovery_target_action to promote when using recovery target settings #545)
• Fixed wrong listen address used in pg_hba.conf when SUReplAccessStrict mode was enabled (#520)

and many other bug fixes and documentation improvements.

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release.

Upgrades notes.

• The clusterspec standbySettings option as been replaced by the standbyConfig option. Internally it can contain two fields standbySettings and archiveRecoverySettings (see the clusterspec doc with the descriptors of this new option). If you're updating a standby cluster, BEFORE starting it you should update, using stolonctl, the clusterspec with the new standbyConfig option.
