Thread: clarification on walsender protocol document
protocol.sgml says <term>START_REPLICATION XXX/XXX</term> <listitem> <para> Instructs backend to start streaming WAL, starting atpoint XXX/XXX. Am I correct in thinking that this is wrong, and streaming actually starts with the byte after XXX/XXX? regards, tom lane
