I want to build a Postgresql Cluster in a Cloud environment (yes I know it's a bad idea... but that is not the question). For your information, I use a Dockerized Postgresql (see: https://github.com/paunin/postgres-docker-cluster ) but that is not the problem and not the question.
So I have installed 2 Postgresql 9.5 with streaming replication. On each host I have repmgr 3.2.1 installed and correctly configured.
The following case have some issue:
repmgr cluster show
and I don't find any solution to force the old master to become slave.The only ugly solution I found is to remove all data of the old master and restart it. Doing this, it became slave as expected (but a full resynchro is needed...).
Please note that It seems to be not possible to force the old master to became slave. repmgr standby register
don't work as it says:

* master | psg-host22 | psg-host21 | user=replication_user password=replication_pass host=psg-host22 dbname=replication_db port=5432 connect_timeout=2
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you need high-available Postgres cluster managed by repmgr, you can use the pg-dock
This is tool for dockerizing the Postgres cluster with repmgr.
