Thread: Startup process in slave
Hi,
I could see that there is zero replication lag between master and slave.
But, slave has startup process always recovering along with wal receiver streaming.
I thought after startup process stops recovering, then only wal receiver will start receiving files from wal sender. Then startup process will be stopped.
In pg 9.6, I have always seen, only walreceiver running. But currently, in Pg11, I see startup process in addition. May be it's not version specific. I'm just adding more information.
Can you please clarify why startup process is running even after walreceiver came up?
Thanks
Raj

Yes, it will always be recovering, that's how it works. Wal receiver gets the logs, but startup recovery process appliesthem. > In pg 9.6, I have always seen, only walreceiver running. Are you sure about that?

Yes, it will always be recovering, that's how it works. Wal receiver gets the logs, but startup recovery process applies them.
