Ooops...I accidentally took this off list, as Kevin was nice enough to point out.

I had to manually recreate some customer data after bringing up the previous backup. So, I'd rather have them not there, because, well, if there are 200 of them in the dir, there's a higher chance in a case of a crash that one goes bad than if I have 15. Would adding -f (full) clean these up? I seem to recall it did in earlier versions. I've added the -F to it already, and that didn't seem to help. -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
