Bucardo has a few requirements before it can run.

  • Any databases being replicated must be version 8.0 or greater.
  • Any "source" databases used in pushdelta or swap syncs must have the plpgsql language available.
  • The database Bucardo itself uses must have plpgsql and plperlu available

Bucardo itself is a Perl daemon that communicates with a master Bucardo database and the databases that are being replicated. The box that it lives on must have:

  • Perl, at least version 5.8.3
  • DBI. at least version 1.51
  • DBD::Pg, at least version 2.0.0
  • Sys::Hostname, at least version 1.11
  • Sys::Syslog, at least version 0.13
  • DBIx::Safe, at least version 1.2.4

In addition, the Bucardo daemon will not currently work on Windows boxes. However, you can have a Bucardo daemon on a Linux box that replicates Postgres between two Window boxes.
