Hello,
Thanks for your reply and your explanation! Now, I understand, it's good to know
it is a known issue.
I'll follow this thread, I hope we will find a solution. It's annoying that your
secondary breaks when your primary crash and the only solution is to either
fetch an archived WAL file and replace it on the secondary, or completely
rebuild your secondary.
Thanks
