Description-en: replication manager for PostgreSQL (metapackage)
Since version 9.0, PostgreSQL allow you to have replicated hot
standby servers which you can query and/or use for high availability.
While the main components of the feature are included with
PostgreSQL, the user is expected to manage the high availability
parts.
.
repmgr allows you to monitor and manage your replicated PostgreSQL
databases as a single cluster.
.
This is a metapackage that depends on the version specific packages.
