present in the new master due to replication slots. Can pg_rewind still work without WAL archiving in this scenario. Thanks, Subhro -Original Message- From: Michael Paquier [mailto:michael.paqu...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 6, 2017 8:50 AM To: Bhattacharyya, Subhro Cc: pgsql

[GENERAL] Replication slot and pg_rewind

2017-06-05 Thread Bhattacharyya, Subhro
We are using the replication slot and pg_rewind feature of postgresql 9.6 Our cluster consists of 1 master and 1 slave node. The replication slot feature allows the master to keep as much WAL as is required by the slave. The pg_rewind command uses WALs to bring the slave in sync with the master
