Description:

Hi,

In section 'WAL archiving setting (parameter archive_command)
I always use, in Unix, the option '-p' on the cp command, to keep the date
and time of the creation of the WAL. In case of restore, when WAL are not
on disk any more, we can find out quicker until witch WAL we have to restore
on disk from backups.

Regards

Dominique
