Oh sorry, I already did that to fix the WAL confusion so now only the
servers that should use this prefix are using it. I changed the prefix on
master did a backup push. Changed the prefix on the slave and did a
backup_fetch latest. When I do a backup_list I get the correct backups.

However I am not see why postgres isn't starting up now. Since it was
running earlier and I didn't change any config files for postgres.
