PostgreSQL version: 10.10
Operating system: suse
Description:
Hello,
We are working on PostgreSQL 10.10. We recently met “no space left”.
After checking, the WAL file folder is full. There is no heavy traffic.
But we have wal_max_size = 1G configured. I am not that understand why this
can happen.
Is this a BUG?
