Ok. So if I understand it correctly, as far as Postgres is concerned the 'mirror is broken'. It is a one-time cutover.
We then rely on filesystem tools (or other third party tools) to get the original master in sync with the new master efficiently and then make it join as slave.
Right ?

The old server will probably be close enough that judicious use of
rsync with the old copy as the target will allow a base backup to be
taken very quickly.
