Hi Team,

PostgreSQL Version - 11.7

OS - RHEL 7.9

Problem:

We see that the backups were not happening on one of the instances. On further checking, we saw that the checkpoint process was not working. Last checkpoint was 7 days ago. Manual checkpoint goes into hang state.

I see it is waiting for I/O on replication slots. I see no issue on standby and replication is working fine. Need help to further debug this
