Ah, yep. I added a clause to the end of the sentence to clarify why we're using max_replication_slots here: - The subscriber also requires the max_replication_slots to be set. + The subscriber also requires that max_replication_slots be set to + configure how many replication origins can be tracked. > > Okay, that makes sense.

Should I add it to the March CF? Separate question: are documentation updates like these ever backported to older versions that are still supported? And if so, would the changes be reflected immediately, or would they require a minor point release? When I was on an older release I found that I'd jump back and forth between the version I was using and the latest version to see if anything had changed. - Paul
