Yes, but if no WAL gets generated and replicated for a while, the columns will become NULL, because then delay measured in time makes no sense.

Therefore, I prefer to use "replay_lsn" and friends and measure the lag in bytes.

Thank you so much for your guidance,  Today morning I noticed the columns being null .  

| streaming | 0/491179E8 | 0/491179E8 | 0/491179E8 | 0/491179E8 |           |           |            |

Does it make sense to use the below SQL as a primary health check ?

[postgres@Source_server~]$ psql -p 5432 -c " select  pg_wal_lsn_diff(sent_lsn,replay_lsn) from pg_stat_replication"
 pg_wal_lsn_diff
