All;
We're doing a migration as follows:
1) we setup a HOT standby pair
2) we did an import of a db that wan backed up via pg_dump
The pg_xlog directory has > 1700 files in it, It seems that the slave is
way behind which I get since we just imported a 55GB database but the
slave is not removing it's local pg_xlog wal files.
We actually stopped the import when the slave hit 97% full for the file
system where we have it's pg_xlog directory mounted
after like 30minutes the file count in the slave's pg_xlog dir has not
changed.
Any thoughts per why the slave is not removing these files?
Thanks in advance
