Creates a new physical replication slot named

<parameter>slot_name</parameter>. Streaming changes from a physical slot

is only possible with the streaming-replication protocol - see <xref

linkend="protocol-replication">. Corresponds to the replication protocol

command <literal>CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT ... PHYSICAL</literal>. The optional

second parameter, when <literal>true</>, specifies that the <acronym>LSN</>

for this replication slot be reserved immediately; the <acronym<LSN</>

is otherwise reserved on first connection from a streaming replication

client.
