Hi, I have one comment to following comment: pg_createsubscriber.c, the comment is not correct as this new option is not related with logical replication slot. bool failover; /* enable failover option of logical replication slot */ Suggest to change to: /* enable failover option of subscription */ Thanks, Xueyu Gao HighGo Software Co., Ltd. https://www.highgo.com/ At 2025-12-10 17:03:48, "Ioseph Kim" <pgsql-kr@postgresql.kr> wrote: >Hi > >A failover option has been added to the CREATE SUBSCRITION command, but this functionality isn't easily accessible using the pg_createsubscriber tool. > >Subscriptions created using pg_createsubscriber must be configured for failover via an alter operation. > >To address this issue, we've added a simple --enable-failover option to the pg_createsubscriber tool. > >This patch is simple.
