Hi Atul
Start by looking at the current WAL LSN and insert LSN. The
pg_current_wal_lsn is the location of the last write. The pg_current_wal_insert_lsn
is the logical location and reflects data in the buffer that has not
been written to disk. There is also a flush value that shows what has
been written to durable storage.[postgres] # select pg_current_wal_lsn(), pg_current_wal_insert_lsn();
pg_current_wal_lsn | pg_current_wal_insert_lsn
--------------------+---------------------------
76/7D000000 | 76/7D000028
(1 row)
Although you can guess the name of the WAL file based on the above output, it is best to use the pg_walfile_name function.
[postgres] # select pg_walfile_name('76/7D000028');
pg_walfile_name
--------------------------
00000001000000760000007D
(1 row)
