Re: Turn off streaming replication - leaving Master running

If i touch my trigger file and promote my secondary to a master - what
effect will that have on the Master - will i need to make any changes on
that side ? Will it still try and stream data across to the promoted
secondary and just fill up the log files with error messages ?
