When using physical replication and a replication slot still exists in pg_replication_slots, won't the WAL files "just" accumulate in pg_wal/ until Pg on the replica is restarted?

Well that stinks. And seems a pretty fatal flaw in repmgr.

Hi Ron,I test it using repmgr. So, when i close the postgres and repmgr services at the standby site, as i understand, repmgr drops it's replication slot so there is no wal accumulation in pg_wal at primary site but archiving is working well because it is enabled.Thanks for response,04.11.2023, 17:16, "Ron" <ronljohnsonjr@gmail.com>:On 11/4/23 08:42, Laurenz Albe wrote:

to recover the standby server from primary archived WAL segments.
If it is possible, how primary and/or standby servers must be configured?
When using physical replication and a replication slot still exists in
pg_replication_slots, won't the WAL files "just" accumulate in pg_wal/ until
Pg on the replica is restarted? (I just tested that, and it seems to work.)
