Hi In HEAD, pg_stop_backup waits until the history file has been archived. But, in order to ensure that the last wal file was archived, pg_stop_backup should wait until not only the history file but also the backup stopping wal file has been archived, I think.
Because the alphabetic order of the history file and the backup stopping wal file is not constant. If the backup starting wal file is the same as the stopping one (that is, any wal files were not switched during backup), the history file whose name consists of the starting one is behind the stopping one. Otherwise, the backup stopping wal file is behind the history file. Is this worth fixing? -- Fujii Masao NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION NTT Open Source Software Center -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
