the message says it all. You need to copy the WAL file 00000001000002CF000000E9 and newer to the replica's pg_wal directory because
it has been removed >already on the master site.
Obviously, you can only do that if the files have been archived.
wal files are not archieved.
Otherwise, you'd have to fully reinitiate the replica.
I have tried to re-initiate replica serveral times in low-use time but this error occurs again.
Replication will start again as soon as the requested WALs are copied over to the replica.
Use a replication slot to avoid this situation. If you use a replication slot, the master will only remove WAL files which are not
needed by any one replica.
If named replication slot is used commands like
vacuumdb --all --full
will cause main server crash due to disk space limit. pg_wal directory will occupy free disk space. After that main server stops.
I tried using wal_keep_segments =180
Will setting wal_keep_segments to higher value allw replication start after pg_basebackup ?
