Provided by: slony1-2-doc_2.2.4-3_all bug

NAME
       RESTART NODE - Restart Slony-I node


SYNOPSIS
       RESTART NODE options;


DESCRIPTION
       Causes  an  eventually  running  replication  daemon (slon process) on the specified node to shutdown and
       restart itself. Theoretically, this command should be obsolete.  In  practice,  TCP  timeouts  can  delay
       critical  configuration  changes to actually happen in the case where a former forwarding node failed and
       needs to be bypassed by subscribers.

       ID = ival
              Node ID of the node to restart.


EXAMPLE
         RESTART NODE ( ID = 2 );


LOCKING BEHAVIOUR
       No application-visible locking should take place.


SLONIK EVENT CONFIRMATION BEHAVIOUR
       Slonik does not wait for event confirmations before performing this command


VERSION INFORMATION
       This command was introduced in Slony-I 1.0; frequent use became unnecessary as of  version  1.0.5.  There
       are, however, occasional cases where it is necessary to interrupt a slon process, and this allows this to
       be scripted via slonik.
