The problem could be due to various reasons. One gotcha I had was, despite a well-established password-less SSH setup, if you haven't made the hostname/IP recognized as a known host, SSH would prompt and pgpool_recovery simply gives out 'ERROR: pgpool_recovery failed' wihtout any additional message.<br><br>Try 'ssh se032c-94-31' and see if you get a prompt like the following. If so, simply answer yes to get the symbolic name on the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file and try your pgpool_recovery one more time.<br><br>I hope this leads you to something, if it does not directly address your issue.<br><br>Thanks,<br>-Kong<br><br>The authenticity of host '10.89.94.31 (10.89.94.31)' can't be established.<br>RSA key fingerprint is ....<br>Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? <br><br><div>> template1=# SELECT pgpool_recovery('basebackup.sh', 'se032c-94-31',<br>> '/opt/postgres/9.2/data');<br>> ERROR: pgpool_recovery failed<br>> template1=# SELECT pgpool_recovery('basebackup.sh', '10.89.94.31',<br>> '/opt/postgres/9.2/data');<br>> pgpool_recovery<br>> -----------------<br>> t<br>> (1 row)<br>> <br>> <br>> If hostname is used, the command will failed, but IP works fine.<br>> <br>> I double check the hostname is pingable from localhost.<br>> <br>> [root@se032c-94-30 ~]# ping se032c-94-31<br>> PING se032c-94-31.cisco.com (10.89.94.31) 56(84) bytes of data.<br>> 64 bytes from se032c-94-31.abc.com (10.89.94.31): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64<br>> time=0.254 ms<br>> 64 bytes from se032c-94-31.abc.com (10.89.94.31): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64<br>> time=0.311 ms<br><br><br></div> </div>
