Magnus, Kevin: Two things:
1) pg_receivexlog doesn't help for users who need to archive from the master to cold storage (e.g. remote SAN, S3, whatever). So we're going to still need an archive_command. 2) One reason users are using the "test -f" version of the archive command is that we put it in the same postgresql.conf. I would suggest that we don't put *any* archive command in the sample postgresql.conf, since there is no command we can supply which isn't a potential foot-gun. -- 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
