List pgsql-admin
slave_new: server that needs a new copy of the DB
slave01: streaming replication slave

My steps are:

1. ssh slave_new
2. Stop postgres
3. rm -rf /var/lib/pgsql/9.2/data/*
4. ssh postgres@slave01 'pg_basebackup --pgdata=- --format=tar --label=slave_new --progress --host=localhost --port=5432 --username=replicator --xlog-method=stream' | tar -x --no-same-owner
5. Once the STEP 4 is done, copy the original postgresql.conf pg_hba.conf recovery.conf into /var/lib/pgsql/9.2/data
6. Set recovery,conf with restored command.
7. Start Postgres
I should be able to see the DB recovering itself from the wal_files via LOGS

Is that right?
