The patch was no longer applied cleanly because of recent commit.
So I updated the patch. Attached.
Barring any objection, I will commit this patch.
This doesn't look right:
+ the <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> most recent megabytes
+ WAL files plus one WAL file are
How about:
+ <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes of
+ WAL files plus one WAL file are
Thanks for the comment! Isn't it better to keep "most recent" part?
If so, what about either of the followings?
1. <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes of WAL files plus
one WAL file that were most recently generated are kept all time.
2. <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes + <xref
linkend="guc-wal-segment-size"> bytes
of WAL files that were most recently generated are kept all time.
"most recent" seemed implied to me, but I see your point.
How about:
+ the most recent <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes of
+ WAL files plus one additional WAL file are
I adopted this and pushed the patch. Thanks!
Also we need to update the release note for v13. What about adding the
following?
------------------------------------
Rename configuration parameter wal_keep_segments to wal_keep_size.
This allows how much WAL files to retain for the standby server, by bytes
instead of the number of files.
If you previously used wal_keep_segments, the following formula will give you
an approximately equivalent setting:
wal_keep_size = wal_keep_segments * wal_segment_size (typically 16MB)
