Hi,
I'm trying to setup streaming replication on a cluster of postgresql
databases and I followed the instructions outlined here (
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Streaming_Replication) but I'm stuck on
the archive and restore commands. In reading the comments from the archive
command, WAL archiving needs a shared directory between the primary and
standby machines in order to replicate. Is this something actually
required? If so, does postgresql have any recommendations on where this
shared directory ought to be hosted?
Thanks,
