Hi All,

pg_stop_backup is not stopping...

Postgresql version 9.01
OS: Centos
Postgresql.conf ==> default configuration did not change anything

Steps

1. Initiated psql -c "SELECT pg_start_backup('label', true)"
2. Started RSYNC job to sync slave box
     rsync -a /var/lib/pgsql/data/ dbpg9-test-02:/var/lib/pgsql/data

Left over night to rsync - it was only around 10 GB of data to be rsynced,
but i left overnight...

3. psql -c "SELECT pg_stop_backup()"


*Gettign Error Message as below*

I waited quite long and it was not stopping, I had to issue Ctrl+c to cancel
it.


========

I tried to start backup and stop backup again, same problem.

Here is my Archive Command:
archive_command = 'cp -i %p /mnt/nfs/primary/%f < /dev/null'

Directory /mnt/nfs/primary ==> is an NFS mount.


Any solution how to fix it.


Thanks
