Sorry about that, I was referencing failing back over to the primary after failing over to the secondary. Specifically from the post:

- Cool. And how do I fail back to the old master?

- Umm, well, you have to take a new base backup from the new master, and re-build the node from scratch..

The post is about Postgres, you were referring to MSSQL mirroring, which can fail back from primary to secondary and back to primary almost seamlessly, depending on type of failure and log catchup.

Postgres has been a pain as described in the article.......
