All, The point of this thread was to determine:
Is the current interaction of recovery_target_time and standby_mode (that is, that recovery_target_time causes standby_mode to be ignorned) the correct behavior? If Yes, then we have a tech bug and a doc bug: Tech Bug: if the user sets both recovery_target_time and standby_mode in recovery.conf, they should get an error. Doc Bug: we should make it clear that these are exclusive options. If No, then we have a tech bug to change the current functionality, and a decision about backporting. So far, I've seen one opinion (yes) on whether our current behavior is correct or not. For my part, I would like to have a different interacton, but I think that's a future feature rather than a bug, as long as we do the stuff in the Yes column. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
