Um, what makes you think that's a good idea? > This has rarely led to postmaster dying afterwards instead of retrying. "Rarely"? As I read the code, it will happen every single time. Failure of the restore process is a failure, we do not retry. (The general theory is that if you think you need retries, you should code the restore_command to handle that.) regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
