Please confirm.
There are other patches that we should consider along with this one. This particular patch only has meaning when applied with the changes to pg_stop_backup() earlier in 8.4dev cycle. It isn't a bug in xlog switch, it is a bug in how the new waiting code interprets the return value from xlog switch. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
