This blog is about a fast, script based, setup of a repmgr two node cluster with auto failover. This setup is very easy and the requirements comparing to a patroni setup very low, for exapmle as open port on the firewall we need only port 5432 which ist the default port of PostgreSQL.
At first some requirements, in my case two VMs with fixed IPs:
[root@el8-repmgr-1 ~]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
192.168.198.131 el8-repmgr-1 el8-repmgr-1.localdomain
192.168.198.132 el8-repmgr-2 el8-repmgr-2.localdomain
[root@el8-repmgr-1 ~]#
For the whole installation and cofiguration process I have written some shell scripts, for PostgreSQL installation it is this one:

firewall-cmd --reload
The scripts have a help function -h, so they say how to use it:
[root@el8-repmgr-1 install]# sh pg_install.sh -h
PostgreSQL Installation on AlmaLinux 8 / CentOS 8 / Oracle Linxu 8 / RHEL 8 / Rocky Linux 8
Usage:
[OPTION]
Options:
-v <PostgreSQL Version> Major Release of Postgresql (required)
-t <PostgreSQL Node Type> If the System is Primary / Single (p) or Secondary (s) in a Cluster (required)
-h <Help> prints this help
[root@el8-repmgr-1 install]#
So we wil first start wht the primary or leader node:
[root@el8-repmgr-1 install]# sh pg_setup.sh -v 14 -t p

So lets config the master / leader node, given are 4 vCPU and 8GB RAM. The script will restart the postgresql service, so it is needed that postgres user is wihtin sudoers.
Adapt sudoers with visudo:
## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
## Same thing without a password
%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
Add postgres user to sudoers:
[root@el8-repmgr-1 pgsql]# usermod -aG wheel postgres
[root@el8-repmgr-1 pgsql]#
Now we can use the config script.
[postgres@el8-repmgr-1 config]$ sh config.sh -h

Usage:

Options:
-c <Count of CPU used> Amount of CPU used by this system (required)

-v <PostgreSQL Version> Major Release of Postgresql (default = 14)
-h <Help> prints this help

The difference to the Master / Leader installation is that the service is not started, we need an empty pgdata for creating the replica. Again after installation of PostgreSQL we need to change the ownership of the config scripts to postgresql.
[root@el8-repmgr-2 pgsql]# chown -R postgres:postgres config/
Again the setup of .pgpass.

service_restart_command='sudo /usr/bin/systemctl restart postgresql-14.service'
service_reload_command='sudo /usr/bin/systemctl reload postgresql-14.service'
failover
The failover parameter is one of the mandatory parameters for the repmgr daemon. This parameter tells the daemon if it should initiate an automatic failover when a failover situation is detected. It can have either of two values: “manual” or “automatic”. We will set this to automatic in each node.
promote_command
This is another mandatory parameter for the repmgr daemon. This parameter tells the repmgr daemon what command it should run to promote a standby. The value of this parameter will be typically the “repmgr standby promote” command, or the path to a shell script that calls the command
follow_command
This is the third mandatory parameter for the repmgr daemon. This parameter tells a standby node to follow the new primary. The repmgr daemon replaces the %n placeholder with the node ID of the new primary at run time.
monitor_interval_secs
This parameter tells the repmgr daemon how often (in number of seconds) it should check the availability of the upstream node. In our case, there is only one upstream node: the primary node. The default value is 2 seconds, but we will explicitly set this anyhow in each node.
connection_check_type
The connection_check_type parameter dictates the protocol repmgr daemon will use to reach out to the upstream node. This parameter can take three values:
- ping: repmgr uses the PQPing() method
- connection: repmgr tries to create a new connection to the upstream node
- query: repmgr tries to run a SQL query on the upstream node using the existing connection
Again, we will set this parameter to the default value of ping in each node.
reconnect_attempts and reconnect_interval
When the primary becomes unavailable, the repmgr daemon in the standby nodes will try to reconnect to the primary for reconnect_attempts times. The default value for this parameter is 6. Between each reconnect attempt, it will wait for reconnect_interval seconds, which has a default value of 10. For demonstration purposes, we will use a short interval and fewer reconnect attempts. We set this parameter in every node.
standby_disconnect_on_failover
When the standby_disconnect_on_failover parameter is set to “true” in a standby node, the repmgr daemon will ensure its WAL receiver is disconnected from the primary and not receiving any WAL segments. It will also wait for the WAL receivers of other standby nodes to stop before making a failover decision. This parameter should be set to the same value in each node. We are setting this to “true”.
This is a small two node cluster, the next blog wil be extending to multi node cluster and upgrading to PostgreSQL 15.
