Replication slot creation is not replicated to standbys if that's what
you are looking for. So if you use a slot on master and consume its
data up to a given point, and then promote a standby, you may see a
gap of data after creating a slot, or if you created a slot previously
you may consume twice the same WAL records. Note that replication
slots created on standbys are initialized from the last checkpoint
redo record, so you could take advantage of this property before
promoting a standby.
