Hi,
I had two replication slots on my primary. Slaves off and (around 800) WALs kept as expected.
I dropped those slots but over time, the system kept on adding new WALs without reusing them or deleting them.
Only after shutdown and restart the system deleted those WAL files.
Is that ok?
regards
Pupillo
