Postgresql-12 replication status in recovery mode I have postgresql master server and a standby server. The standby will be in recovery mode(ie. will be consuming the wals shipped from the master node). The master will be read/write and the standby will not be able to query until its promoted(DR setup).
I wanted to know the replication status of the standby node(ie. Each wals restored in standby with time to time).
Version - postgresql 12.3
OS - centos 8
recovery.signal
Also is it possible to use streaming replication along with wal file shipping.
You can ask primary server about replication status of standby server(s) by using pg_stat_replication which is a system statistics view.
You can use WAL Archiving to setup a replication instead of / in addition to streaming replication
