Hi!
pg_basebackup takes 8 hours.
After it is finished, replication slave does not start:

...
i tried it again and same error occured.
How to force replication to start?
I increased wal parameters in master to
wal_compression=on
max_wal_size = 5GB
min_wal_size = 4GB # was 80MB
wal_keep_segments= 360 # was 180
Will this allow replication to start after pg_basebackup ?
According to doc min_wal_size and wal_keep_segments both keep the minimum number of wal segments for replication.
Why those parameters are duplicated?
