Hi Sergei,

as far as I understand these restrictions apply when hot_standby is set to on AND a recovery.conf is missing.
I can confirm that hot_standby is commented out - is this setting on by default?

grep hot_standby  /etc/postgresql/10/main/postgresql.conf
#hot_standby = on                       # "off" disallows queries during recovery
#hot_standby_feedback = off             # send info from standby to prevent

Cheers

Hello

No, this is intended and documented behavior: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/hot-standby.html#HOT-STANDBY-ADMIN
max_worker_processes must be at least the same as on primary. It is because exactly of our technical connection between recovery and the number of backends.

regards, Sergei
