Hi all,
a friend of mine has shown to me a "strange" configuration of its
physical replication server (13): he has both primary_conninfo and
primary_slot_name, with replication slots active when queried on the
master. So far so good, but in the configuration he has also
restore_command to restore archived WALs from a centralized location.
Does this make sense?
Because if the replica cannot connect to the master, it will not start
at all (so I guess no restore_command will be executed). On the other
hand if the replica can connect to the primary the WALs will be
shipped by means of streaming.
Am I missing something?
