If archive recovery fails after it reaches the last valid record in the last unfilled WAL segment, subsequent recovery might cause the following fatal error. This is because minSafeStartPoint indicates the end of the last unfilled WAL segment which subsequent recovery cannot reach. Is this bug? (I'm not sure how to fix this problem because I don't understand yet why minSafeStartPoint is required.) > FATAL: WAL ends before end time of backup dump Regards, -- 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
