List , I am trying to configure a WAL replicated standby server(EDB16) .. In the archive command I used a dedicated "/data/archive " directory for WAL archiving as follows, as I don't want any WAL overwriting in the default WAL directory and loss of WAL files.
I have archive_command= ' cp %p /data/archive/%f ' pg_hba.conf I have host replication all 10.255.10.0/24 md5 My doubt is whether the standby Postgres server(EDB16) reads WAL files by itself from the primary server's explicit WAL archive folder /data/archive by its own ? OR The standby can read only from the default WAL location ie; pg_wal directory of primary server ? Please enlighten me. If the standby can read only the default pg_wal folder, then how can we make the standby server to read from the explicit " /data/archive " folder for WAL syncing automatically to the standby ? Any input is much appreciated. Thank you, Krishane
