I changed my archive_command to the following: archive_command = 'gsutil cp /storage/postgresql/9.6/main/%p gs://my_bucket/pg_xlog/' and it fails, leaving the following in the log:
2017-08-18 18:34:25.057 GMT [1436][0]: [104319] LOG: archive command failed with exit code 12017-08-18 18:34:25.057 GMT [1436][0]: [104320] DETAIL: The failed archive command was: gsutil cp /storage/postgresql/9.6/main/000000010000038B000000D8 gs://my_bucket/pg_xlog/2017-08-18 18:34:25.057 GMT [1436][0]: [104321] WARNING: archiving transaction log file "000000010000038B000000D8" failed too many times, will try again later But the command works when executed manually: root$ su postgres -c "gsutil cp /storage/postgresql/9.6/main/000000010000038B000000D8 gs://my_bucket/pg_xlog/"root$ echo $?0 The last command verifies that gsutil indeed exited with 0.
