-   When disabling or enabling checksums in a replication setup of multiple
-   clusters, it is recommended to stop all the clusters before doing
-   the switch to all the clusters consistently. When using a replication
-   setup with tools which perform direct copies of relation file blocks
-   (for example <xref linkend="app-pgrewind"/>), enabling or disabling
-   checksums can lead to page corruptions in the shape of incorrect
-   checksums if the operation is not done consistently across all nodes.
-   Destroying all the standbys in the setup first, enabling or disabling
-   checksums on the primary and finally recreating the standbys from
-   scratch is also safe.
+   Enabling checksums in a large cluster can potentially take a long time.
+   During this operation, the cluster or other programs that write to the
+   data directory must not be started or else data loss may occur.

-   If <application>pg_checksums</application> is aborted or killed in
