Thread: Remove unnecessary secondary index terms for replication settings
Hi, In config.sgml, the entries for max_replication_slots and max_active_replication_origins include secondary index terms: <primary><varname>max_replication_slots</varname> configuration parameter</primary> <secondary>in a sending server</secondary> <primary><varname>max_active_replication_origins</varname> configuration parameter</primary> <secondary>in a subscriber</secondary> These secondary terms don't seem necessary anymore, since each parameter now has only one index entry. Removing them would simplify the documentation. Originally, the secondary entries made sense because max_active_replication_origins was part of max_replication_slots, so both needed separate index entries. But commit 04ff636cbce split them into distinct parameters. Patch attached. Regards, -- Fujii Masao Advanced Computing Technology Center Research and Development Headquarters NTT DATA CORPORATION

Agreed. It was an oversight in my patch. LGTM.
