Master standby should avoid incomplete split operation Master standby performs replay of xlog records within a range of checkpoints similar to crash recovery. During this is it may replay incomplete multi-step operation at the end of the range. This generates xlog. But Master standby should not generate xlog as it does not have WAL subsystem active. This fix avoids completing such operation e.g. Btree split if the system is in standby mode. ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
