Or you can define both files in your command line to have the choice. I like the idea of removing -t and adding 2 new options so that people are warned about the intended behavior. Anyway, I don't have a strong opinion about how we should fix it as I don't use pg_standby personnally, just that we should. The two options you mention have their own merits. -- Guillaume -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
