• Type of issue? question

Please give me an advice. I get error during bootstrapping the replica from leader after I reinit the patroni in replica. It can not restore from WAL because of size of last backup. How can I solve this problem gracefully? WAL backups are stored in S3 storage. Here is my logs from replica:

Thanks in Advance

Start with the reported bootstrap paths, /scripts/basebackup.sh and /scripts/wale_restore.sh, and review the logs showing pg_basebackup failure and the 102400MB WAL threshold. Done would require identifying why replica restoration fails for this workload and documenting or implementing a graceful resolution, but the issue does not define a specific requested change.
