Fly.io Postgres failover fix (flyctl pg failover
)
This is a note to myself, meant to be succinct and helpful. I’m sharing it publicly to save others time.
Most of the time Fly.io works as I expect it to, but occasionally there are edge cases that lack documentation, public announcements, or both.
It’s possible that at some point Fly.io announced a breaking change and I missed it, but the behavior I observed deserves more than an announcement or silently released documentation.
