To: Raghav <ragavendra.dba at gmail.com>


*First of all, I apologize for the excessive length of my first query.
I'll try to keep everything short and sweet.

In response to Raghav's query: no slony logs have been created yet because
I haven't issued
a start_slon statement. Can't do that till I initialize a cluster.
**Also, all the pg_logs show are the printouts of the script to create the
schema.
Finally, check the pg_stat_activity listing I attached.
The CREATE table for sl_node is not in
 a wait state.
