All;

The docs specify this (9.4 docs):

Synchronous replication offers the ability to confirm that all changes
made by a transaction have been transferred to /*one*/ synchronous
standby server. This extends the standard level of durability offered by
a transaction commit. This level of protection is referred to as 2-safe
replication in computer science theory.

Does this mean that Synchronous replication only works with one standby?

Thanks in advance
