pgd replication show#

Synopsis#

The pgd replication show command is used to display the replication status in the EDB Postgres Distributed cluster.

By default, with no options, it produces reports on the following:

  • Node Replication Progress: A matrix of the replication status between nodes.

  • Replication Slots: The replication slots status for each node’s slots.

  • Subscriptions: The subscription status for each subscription between nodes.

  • Analytics Replication: The analytics replication status for each node.

Options can be used to restrict the output to any one of the above reports. The --verbose option can be used to increase the detail in the default report to show the LSN and the replication lag for each node’s connection to other nodes.

Users and roles#

Requires the bdr_monitor role or higher. See User roles .

Short

Long

Description

--nodes

Display only node to node replication status in a matrix format.

--slots

Display the replication slots for each node.

--subscriptions

Display the subscription status for each subscription between nodes.

--analytics

Display the analytics replication status for each node.

-v

--verbose

Display detailed information about the replication status.

See the Global Options for common global options.

–slots#

This shows Shows the status of BDR replication slots. Output with the verbose flag gives details such as is slot active, replication state (disconnected, streaming, catchup), and approximate lag.

Symbol

Meaning

*

ok

~

warning (lag > 10M)

!

critical (lag > 100M OR slot is 'inactive' OR 'disconnected')

x

down / unreachable

-

n/a

In matrix view, sometimes byte lag is shown in parentheses. It is maxOf(WriteLag, FlushLag, ReplayLag, SentLag).
