In 9.1 I had to make the archive location (NFS in my case) available to all the mirrors running PG so that they could catch up whenever they fell behind. I thought I read somewhere that in 9.6, as long as the WAL log is available on disk or in the archive the replication server will provide that to the replication client, and my archive NFS mount didn't have to be available to all replication clients. It doesn't seem to be operating that way though. Did I completely remember that wrong or did I misunderstand something? You can configure it that way with replication slots. That obviously requires enough space. It also, as the data is stored on the primary, can't protect against loosing the entire primary (nor will an nfs served archive if it's hosted on the primary). > This message is intended only for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
