Replying to myself :)
It seems pg_basebackup did all the tricks, even restarting the slave. And it is in standby mode.
Do I have anything to do in addition ?
Thanks

Hello,
We are running Postgresql 12 and I'm trying to put in place streaming wal replication.
I followed officiale documentation ( https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/warm-standby.html ) as well as this tutorial :
https://scalegrid.io/blog/managing-high-availability-in-postgresql-part-1/
What I did is :
* created the master db
* create replication role
* updated postgresql.conf
* finally replicate everything on the salve node using pg_basebackup (with -R option)
But now I'm lost with §26.2.4 Setting up a standby server.
In which file I have to put the
primary_conninfo
and other options ?
Thanks
Laurent
ps: my goal is to install the PAF
