==Backup==
Backup server is provided by Manu (KVM virtual machine with 100 GB storage and 1 GB ram). Running on debian gnu/linux 10 buster.
Documentation: https://linuxhint.com/setup_postgresql_replication/ and https://www.percona.com/blog/2018/09/07/setting-up-streaming-replication-postgresql/
===Slave configuration: Step 1===
Install postgresql and rsync
# apt-get install postgresql-contrib-11 rsync
Check postgresql server is running
# su postgres -c psql
Make sure en_US.UTF-8 locale is available
# dpkg-reconfigure locales
Create ssh key for postgres user
# su - postgres
$ ssh-keygen -t ed25519
Now copy /var/lib/postgresql/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub to master postgres users' /var/lib/postgresql/.ssh/authorized_keys
Stop postgresql before changing any configuration
# systemctl stop postgresql@11-main
as postgres user
$ su - postgres
$ cd /etc/postgresql/11/main
Open the postgres configuration file
$ nano postgresql.conf
Set the following configuration options in the postgresql.conf file
listen_addresses = 'localhost,192.168.0.115'
port=5432
wal_level = replica
max_wal_senders = 1
archive_mode = on
archive_command = 'cd .'
hot_standby = on
===Master configuration===
Create and copy ssh public key to slave like above.
# su - postgres
$ ssh-keygen
Now copy /var/lib/postgresql/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to slave postgres users' /var/lib/postgresql/.ssh/authorized_keys
Create postgresql user for replication.
$ psql -c "CREATE USER rep REPLICATION LOGIN CONNECTION LIMIT 1 ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'yourpassword';"
Allow slave to connect to master using the user just created.
$ cd /etc/postgresql/11/main
$ nano pg_hba.conf
Add below line to allow rep user to get access to the server
host    replication    rep    62.210.83.200/32  md5
Next , open the postgres configuration file
nano postgresql.conf
Set the following configuration options in the postgresql.conf file
listen_addresses = 'localhost,213.167.243.152'
port=5432
wal_level = replica
max_wal_senders = 1
archive_mode = on
archive_command = 'cd .'
hot_standby = on
Now, to activate your changes, reload the postgresql server
# systemctl reload postgresql@11-main
You may need to restart it via systemd,
# systemctl restart postgresql
Open 5432 port in the firewall
# ufw allow from 62.210.83.200 to any port 5432 proto tcp
===Slave Configuration: Step 2===
Copy data from master and create recovery.conf
$ pg_basebackup -h git.fosscommunity.in -D /var/lib/postgresql/11/main/ -P -U rep --wal-method=fetch  -R
Start the slave server
# systemctl start postgresql@11-main
===Replication Status===
On master server ,
$ ps -ef | grep sender
$ psql -c "select * from pg_stat_activity where usename='rep';"
On slave server,
$ ps -ef | grep receiver
