My restore command is: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- restore_command = 'pg_standby -l -d -s 5 -w 0 -t /tmp/ pgsql.promote_trigger.5432 ~postgres/incoming_wal %f %p %r 2>&1 | logger -p local1.info -t pitr-standby' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you can see I didn't set -k to keep fixed number of WALs, but %r parameter and the PostgreSQL controls number of keeped files automatically (or at least it should)
