I have set up a hot standby in PostgreSQL 9.0 on Windows.

I want that, at the time of fail-over, the slave should take over the role of master and start performing operations (both read and write) automatically.

How can I do that?

These are some prior and somewhat related questions from the same user: dba.stackexchange.com/q/27868/7788 and dba.stackexchange.com/q/27121/7788 . Answers to the 2nd have a fair bit of detail, so that'll save some repetition. – Craig Ringer Nov 1 '12 at 8:41
