6 RServ offers replication capabilities for PostgreSQL. This is improved
7 version of original code by PostgreSQL Inc. included in contrib part of
8 distribution.
9
10 Originally written by Vadim Mikheev from PostgreSQL Inc., it also include
11 changes made by Nélio Alves Pereira Filho and Dobrica Pavlinusic and
12 contributions from Grant McLean.
13
14 Main goals are secure remote replication using ssh, ease of installation and
15 documentation. We aim to create stable and easy to use replication until
16 PGReplication is included in official PostgreSQL. However, it's not planned
17 to discontinue project at that time. You will just have choice of two
18 replication mechanisms.

20 This project is released under the Berkeley/BSD license.

23 FILES
24
25 This is my attempt to describe files in this distribution.
26
27 bin/ mostly perl utilities which are required for RServ
28 doc/ contains documentation about RServ collected from various sources
29 doc/README.rserv original README for RServ 0.1
30 doc/eRserver.ChangeLog non-english ChangeLog from Nélio
31 doc/eRserver.HOWTO not quite accurate HOWTO from Sekar Gopi
32 lib/ contains C source code for rserv.so used by trigger in RServ
33 misc/master.sql database schema of RServ specific part in master database
34 with comments for RServ 0.1 (changed by now)
35 misc/regress.sh original regress script
36 misc/slave.sql database schema for slave (changed)
37 misc/rserv_test.pl bulk inserter for populating database
38 share/RServ.pm perl module used by utilities in bin/

41 Nice accompanying project is pgdiff (also from Dobrica Pavlinusic) available at
42 http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgdiff/projdisplay.php
43 compares the structures and data of two PostgreSQL databases (master and
44 slave) and returns the differences as a sequence of SQL commands which can
45 be fed to psql on slave to transform the structure and data from master to
46 slave.
47 It can be used to make regression testing of RServ replication (that's why I
48 originally written it).
