To use pg_rewind, we should either enable *wal_log_hints  *or initialize
data directory with checksum enabled. These are not default and will not be
enabled in most of the cases. In those scenarios, we cannot pg_rewind to
sync data.

I read somewhere that a .partial file will definitely be created during
promotion of the slave database and is introduced from the postgres 9.5
version. Please correct me if I am wrong. But in my scenario, it is not
getting generated.

Thanks and Regards,
Manoj.
