Hi,
1) have you configured the archive_command to a script that archives the online WAL to the archive destination and deletes the file?
2) As far as I know the cleanup of archive destination has to done manually.

Subject: pg_basebackup: could not get write-ahead log end position from server: ERROR
Dear Team,
1)Whilst taking full backup via pg_basebackup I have facing below error. Backup is schedule via cronjob.
================================================================================
****** Full Backup of posgresql database started Fri Jun 8 20:40:36 PKT 2018.
080618204036
pg_basebackup: initiating base backup, waiting for checkpoint to complete
pg_basebackup: checkpoint completed
pg_basebackup: write-ahead log start point: 43/400252F8 on timeline 1
17624153/17624153 kB (100%), 2/2 tablespaces
pg_basebackup: could not get write-ahead log end position from server: ERROR: requested WAL segment 000000010000004300000040 has already been removed
pg_basebackup: removing data directory "/db01/pgdata/hot_backup/080618204036"
2)Also after complete backup I have to manually delete the wal archive files using pg_archivecleanup. Is there any way to automatically delete after full backup is complete and wal archive are no longer required.
pg_archivecleanup -d /db01/wal_archive 00000001000000390000000A
Kindly let me know how to rectify.
pg_basebackup -z -X fetch --progress -v --format=t -D /db01/pgdata/hot_backup/$DD --no-password

It can also be done by using "pg_archivecleanup" command. We also can schedule it as a cron job for automatic deleting of WAL files.Regards,
Pavan.
