+    PostgreSQL 11 and below used a configuration file named
+    <code class="filename">recovery.conf</code>
+    <a id="id-1.11.16.3.3.2" class="indexterm"></a>
+    to manage replicas and standbys. Support for this file was removed in PostgreSQL 12. See
+    <a class="link" href="release-prior.html" title="E.4. Prior Releases">the release notes for PostgreSQL 12</a> for details
+    on this change.

+    <a class="link" href="continuous-archiving.html" title="26.3. Continuous Archiving and Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR)">archive recovery, streaming replication, and PITR</a>
+    are configured using
+    <a class="link" href="runtime-config-replication.html#RUNTIME-CONFIG-REPLICATION-STANDBY" title="20.6.3. Standby Servers">normal server configuration parameters</a>.
+    These are set in <code class="filename">postgresql.conf</code> or via
+    <a class="link" href="sql-altersystem.html" title="ALTER SYSTEM">ALTER SYSTEM</a>
+    like any other parameter.
+   </p><p>
+    The server will not start if a <code class="filename">recovery.conf</code> exists.
+   </p><p>
+    PostgreSQL 15 and below had a setting
+    <code class="literal">promote_trigger_file</code>, or
+    <code class="literal">trigger_file</code> before 12.
+    Use <code class="command">pg_ctl promote</code> or call
+    <code class="function">pg_promote()</code> to promote a standby instead.

+    The
+    <code class="literal">standby_mode</code>
+    <a id="id-1.11.16.3.7.2" class="indexterm"></a>
