Hello,
To install pgpool, I run this command in my virtual machine (OS: Redhat linux 5);
yum install pgpool-II-91.i386
Is it correct? this will install full and complete pgpool librairies necessary for the Hot Standby / Streaming replication on 2 servers on my machine?

Thanks

Hello,
I am new user of Postgresql, I have successfully set up a Hot Standby / Streaming replication on 2 servers running on Redhat Linux 5 (Postgresql version 9.1).

I need to set up an automatic failover and discovered that there is a tool named; pgpool. I have searched a lot on the net and didn't found a useful article (step by step) to setup it.

Could you please help me and share any useful document with me?
thanks,
W
