Bucardo/add dbgroup
From Bucardo
Note: this page documents the behavior of Bucardo 5. Information on this page may not apply to earlier versions.
The add dbgroup command creates a database group and optionally adds one or more databases to it.
Example:
bucardo add dbgroup horses A B C
Creates a new database group named horses and puts the databases A, B, and C inside of it. The default roles are used, so database A in this group will be a source database, and B and C will be targets.
Usages:
bucardo add dbgroup <name> [optional list of databases]
The list of databases is optional, and can include the type of role as well. By default, the first database given is set to a source role, and the others are set to a target role. The role can be specified by adding a colon and then the role name afterwards. Thus, this command is the same as the example above:
bucardo add dbgroup horses A:source B:target C:target
You can also add new databases to a group with the add dbgroup command. Databases can only be added this way: they are never removed from the group. For example, to add a new database to the same group with a role of fullcopy, use:
bucardo add dbgroup horses D:fullcopy
Internals
New database groups are created with an insert to the bucardo.dbgroup table. Databases that are added to this group cause an insert to the bucardo.dbmap table.
