Hi all, I had many waste replication identifier (164 of 457), the env is BDR 0.9.3 and 9.4.4. I'm going to remove those junk replication identifiers, but there is no exactly how to do in docs.
# select slot_name,plugin,datoid,restart_lsn from pg_replication_slots where slot_name like '%654018%'; slot_name | plugin | datoid | restart_lsn ------------------------------------------+--------+--------+-------------- bdr_654018_6258509090026857134_1_24612__ | bdr | 654018 | 1443/FDC0A58 (1 row) # select * from pg_replication_identifier where riname like '%654018%'; riident | riname ---------+----------------------------------------- 217 | bdr_6258509090026857134_1_24612_654018_ (1 row) # select * from pg_replication_identifier_progress where external_id like '%654018%'; local_id | external_id | remote_lsn | local_lsn ----------+-----------------------------------------+-------------+--------------- 217 | bdr_6258509090026857134_1_24612_654018_ | 35/38181F98 | 1448/CC3D90C8 (1 row) >From those 3 queries, summarize the slot, and identifier: slot_name : bdr_654018_6258509090026857134_1_24612__ riname : bdr_6258509090026857134_1_24612_654018_ external_id: bdr_6258509090026857134_1_24612_654018_ Validate number of the junk identifier, is it tally?: # select count(*) from pg_replication_slots; count ------- 293 (1 row) # select count(*) from pg_replication_identifier; count ------- 457 (1 row) Identify the junk identifiers with the following query: # select count(*) from pg_replication_identifier where riname not in ( # select split_part(slot_name,'_',1)||'_'||split_part(slot_name,'_',3)||'_'||split_part(slot_name,'_',4)||'_'||split_part(slot_name,'_',5)||'_'||split_part(slot_name,'_',2)||'_' as aaa from pg_replication_slots # ); count ------- 164 (1 row) 457-293 = 164, seems exactly match...
