For instance, can I *upgrade* the slave to a master, and then
replicate to the *old* master (once I have
reinstalled/rebuilt it). Or maybe simply dump the slaves data
to LDIF and then re-import into the *old* master.
Does that make any sense??? Just wondered if there was a
quick way of using the secondary to accomplish this, before I
start sifting through tapes...
I've done this before -- you can go into the server's replication
settings and set it to be a master, and then initialize the consumer to
re-replicate. Works fine.
