One WAL sender process is created on the primary server for each standby which would running the corresponding WAL receiver. So there is one-to-one mapping between WAL senders and WAL receivers (standbys). > > Is that to say, that If max_wal_senders are 3. > > Then 3 wal_senders will be activated , > > > > And then on the standby server, there will be 3 "receivers" for counter-part > ? > max_wal_senders=3 means, there can be maximum 3 standby servers requesting primary to send the WAL. So, while the primary server may be running multiple WAL senders, there is only one WAL receiver on each standby server. -- Amit Langote -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
