Hi Laurenze,
From the configuration we have, does it mean that the primary will retain 32 WAL's of 1 GB each and then start evicting
thefirst WAL as soon as the last one gets filled? In layman's term, 32GB is huge amount of data and I don't think that
muchchanges during upgrades. In fact the total size of our database is 56 GB. Is my understanding correct?
shared_buffers = 48GB
wal_level = replica
max_prepared_transactions = 200
max_wal_senders = 5
wal_keep_segments = 32
hot_standby = ON
effective_cache_size = 144GB
work_mem = 1GB
maintenance_work_mem = 2GB
wal_buffers = 16MB
min_wal_size = 1GB
max_wal_size = 2GB
Thanks & Regards

There are three ways:
1. have a WAL archive and configure "restore_command" on the standby
2. set "wal_keep_size" on the primary high enough
3. use a replication slot
