* To disable archiving, you can pass --archive-mode=off to pgbackrest in the restore command. Actually, for safety, you should always use this argument when restoring. * Please say "Postgres" not "EPAS" * The restore starts from your incremental backup, but then it will replay WAL created after that backup. Check out the postgresql.auto.conf file. * I think what you are looking for is --type=immediate * For debugging and helping to learn, it can be useful to use --pg1-path=/tmp/restoretest to restore to a different data directory. Just remember to change the port. And always use --archive-mode=off :) See specifically this section of the docs: https://pgbackrest.org/command.html#command-restore Cheers, Greg
