All: The example archive_command we give in the docs is this one:
archive_command = 'test ! -f /mnt/server/archivedir/%f && cp %p /mnt/server/archivedir/%f' This is a problematic recommendation. If there's any reason why copying the archive file gets interrupted (storage blip, for example), then the command will fail and will continue to fail forever, ending archiving. Is there some good reason why "test ! -f" was added to the sample? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-docs mailing list (pgsql-docs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-docs
