Thanks for the quick response. I appreciate it. The reason I am asking you this is because we are trying to run WAL-E on a cluster of machines running PostgreSQL. I have recently started working in this area so pardon me if my questions sound too naive. The prime objective of my study is to draw an analogy between WAL-E and BARMAN - which supports backup and restoration via remote machines. BARMAN would let you define a list of PostgreSQL servers in a list and it will go through that one by one to take a backup of the machines. It is this feature that I was trying to explore. So how do you run WAL-E if you have want to back up multiple servers or restore a bunch of them with nearly same configurations? Run an instance on each of them? Also do the configurations files like PostgreSQL.conf get backed up with the data?
