Seems there is a problem with the replay on your standby. Either it is too slow or stuck behind some locks ( replay_lag of 20:38:47.00904 indicates this and the flush_lsn is the same as lsn on primary ) . Run pg_locks to see if the replay is stuck behind a lock.

Hi All,

I have implemented Stream replication in one of my environments, and for some reason even though all the health checks are showing that the replication is working, when I run manual tests to see if changes are being replicated, the changes are not replicated to the standby postgresql environment. I have been researching for two day and I cannot find any documentation that talks about the case I am running into. I will appreciate if anybody could take a look at the details I have detailed below and give me some guidance on where the problem might be that is preventing my changes for being replicated. Even though I was able to instantiate the standby while firewalld was enabled, I decided to disable it just in case that it was causing any issue to the manual changes, but disabling firewalld has not had any effect, I am still not able to get the manual changes test to be replicated to the standby site. As you will see in the details below, the streaming is working, both sites are in sync to the latest WAL but for some reasons the latest changes are not on the standby site. How is it possible that the standby site is completely in sync but yet does not contain the latest changes?

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me with this problem.

 

Regards,

Allie
