Hello All,
I have a 4 node PostgreSQL 9.6 cluster with streaming replication. we encounter today the Out of Memory Error on the Master which resulted in All postres processes restarted and cluster recovered itself. Please let me know the best way to diagnose this issue.
The error seen in the postgresql log:
