Synchronous replication is not possible for cascaded nodes, though cascaded standbys may be connected downstream. An example for a simple four node config of nodeA (master), nodeB, nodeC, and nodeD (standbys) would be set on nodeA as follows:
synchronous_standby_names = 'nodeB, nodeC, nodeD'
If you want to receive replies from the first two of the nodes in a list then we would specify this using the following special syntax:
synchronous_standby_names = '2 (nodeB, nodeC, ...
