Geo: Set recovery_target_timeline to latest by default (!2513) · Merge requests · GitLab.org / omnibus-gitlab

Stan Hu requested to merge sh-geo-add-recovery-target-timeline into master May 10, 2018

We needed this setting when a failover happen and the secondary wasn't able to pull the latest segment from the current timeline. Setting to latest allows the secondary to recovery in case this happens.

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/continuous-archiving.html#BACKUP-TIMELINES for more details.
