I am basically familiar with postgreSQL (in older incarnations) but have not really done a streaming replication (WAL) setup before.
In planning for my setup, I am going to use table partitioning and tablespaces to keep things as quick as "possible". However, in a streaming replication environment, will the slave and the master have to be _exactly_ the same in terms of tablespaces? Is it possible some TBSPACE01 on the master be on /sda1 and the same TBSPACE01 on the slave be on /sdb1? Will I have to set up identical hardware and identical drives and directory structure between the master and slave? Thanks. - Victor Tan
