Slaves off and (around 800) WALs kept as expected. Slaves off means?: You replication set up from the master to the slaves(how many?). Then you disconnected the slaves how? I have 2 slaves configured with async replication but they were down when I dropped the slots. So the 800 WALs number mean you have wal_keep_segments set to 800? No, wal_keep_segments is commented. 800 is the rough number of files I saw in xlog dir before dropping the slots.
What are your settings for?: archive_mode archive_command Do you see anything in the Postgres log that might apply?
I dropped those slots but over time, the system kept on adding new WALs without reusing them or deleting them. Only after shutdown and restart the system deleted those WAL files. Is that ok? regards Pupillo -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxxxx> Regards Pupillo
