Hi,
v8.4.20
This is what the current backup script uses:
/usr/bin/psql -U postgres -c "SELECT
pg_start_backup('Incrementalbackup',true);"
cp -r /var/lib/pgsql/data/* $dumpdir/data/
/usr/bin/psql -U postgres template1 -c "SELECT pg_stop_backup();"
That's fine, as long as you have a wal archive. Although I don't know what
is "Incremental" about it.
From reading the docs, that field is just a label with no intrinsic meaning.
