Thread: archive_mode=on on a Slave in streaming replication mode

Hello,

As per the topic is it possible to set archive_mode and archive_command on a
server which is configured as a streaming replication hot standby?

I've tried and it doesn't seem to work, so I'm guessing maybe it's disabled.

Cheers,
James

It works fine, only the server will not generate WAL while
it is in recovery.  As soon as you promote the standby,
it will archive ist WALs.
