I think the tablespace example is clear enough to modify for WAL and we
instruct them right below that example to do WAL.
Well, it's not following the exact same structure as there's no
"version-directory" in pg_xlog, so the "rsync the version-dirs into it's parent
on the target" isn't what's happening.
That's why I think this makes sense to mention for the sake of a complete
example:
rsync --archive --delete --hard-links --size-only /vol1/postgres/9.6/pg_xlog
\ /vol1/postgres/10/pg_wal standby.example.com:/vol1/postgres/10/pg_wal
Thanks.
