DB wal file disabled --_Query

[jayakumar s <kumardba27.postgresql@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Team,

We have disabled walfile ion database level. While I do manual switch wal file generating in wal file location.

Here is my question if we disable it. Walfile won't generate am i correct?

Kindly clarify my doubts.

postgres=# select name,setting from pg_settings where name like 'archive%';

      name       |  setting
-----------------+------------
 archive_command | (disabled)
 archive_mode    | off
 archive_timeout | 0
(3 rows)

postgres=#

postgres=# SELECT pg_switch_wal();
 pg_switch_wal
---------------
 D/9D000000
(1 row)

[postgres@xxxxxxxxx pg_wal]$ ls -lrt
total 81920
