This command stops the repmgrd daemon on the local node.
By default, repmgr will wait for up to 15 seconds to confirm that repmgrd stopped. This behaviour can be overridden by specifying a diffent value using the --wait option, or disabled altogether with the --no-wait option.
Note: If PostgreSQL is not running on the local node, under some circumstances repmgr may not be able to confirm if repmgrd has actually stopped.
Important: The repmgr.conf parameter repmgrd_service_stop_command must be set for repmgr daemon stop to work; see section repmgr daemon stop configuration for details.
repmgr daemon stop will execute the command defined by the repmgrd_service_stop_command parameter in repmgr.conf. This must be set to a shell command which will stop repmgrd; if repmgr was installed from a package, this will be the service command defined by the package. For more details see Appendix: repmgr package details.
Important: If repmgr was installed from a system package, and you do not configure repmgrd_service_stop_command to an appropriate service command, this may result in the system becoming confused about the state of the repmgrd service; this is particularly the case with systemd.
Check prerequisites but don't actually attempt to stop repmgrd.
This action will output the command which would be executed.
Wait for the specified number of seconds to confirm that repmgrd stopped successfully.
Note that providing --wait=0 is the equivalent of --no-wait.
Don't wait to confirm that repmgrd stopped successfully.
This is equivalent to providing --wait=0.
The following parameter in repmgr.conf is relevant to repmgr daemon stop:
repmgr daemon stop will execute the command defined by the repmgrd_service_stop_command parameter in repmgr.conf. This must be set to a shell command which will stop repmgrd; if repmgr was installed from a package, this will be the service command defined by the package.
