master-slave一对一的情况下清除archive wal的范例

on master
postgres=# create table tbl_checkpoint (chkpoint text,chk_time timestamp without time zone default now());
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# begin;
BEGIN
postgres=# insert into tbl_checkpoint (chkpoint,chk_time) select pg_xlogfile_name(pg_current_xlog_location()),now();
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# checkpoint;
CHECKPOINT
postgres=# commit;
COMMIT
postgres=# select * from tbl_checkpoint ;
         chkpoint         |          chk_time

缩写:
pg_archivecleanup $PGARCHIVE `psql -h 127.0.0.1 postgres postgres -q -t -A -c "select chkpoint from tbl_checkpoint where chk_time=(select max(chk_time) from tbl_checkpoint)"`

on slave验证
重启slave,
postgres: startup process   waiting for 000000010000000400000039
可以登录postgresql,验证正常.
