Hi,
I have two nodes in DO running pgpool. I have assigned floating IP to one of the nodes in DO.I have configured my pgpool to use the floating IP. After starting pgpool on master node, I can see using ifconfig that my floating ip is attached to master node and my application which uses the floating IP to connect, runs fine.
After I shutdown my pgpool services on master node, I can see that floating ip is assigned to the second/standby node but my application is not able to connect to the IP.
If I do not use my application and try directly from command line then also it does not connect. Is the Floating IP bound to only one Droplet?
Thanks, Nikhil

Hello,
Just came across this question. What I could suggest is to set your service bind address to 0.0.0.0, that way when the Floating IP changes your service should still be accessible.
Best, Bobby
