# ------------------------------- # PostgreSQL recovery config file # ------------------------------- # # Edit this file to provide the parameters that PostgreSQL needs to # perform an archive recovery of a database, or to act as a log-streaming # replication standby. # # If "recovery.conf" is present in the PostgreSQL data directory, it is # read on postmaster startup. After successful recovery, it is renamed # to "recovery.done" to ensure that we do not accidentally re-enter # archive recovery or standby mode. # # This file consists of lines of the form: # # name = 'value' # # (The quotes around the value are NOT optional, but the "=" is.) # # Comments are introduced with '#'. # # The complete list of option names and allowed values can be found # in the PostgreSQL documentation. # #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # ARCHIVE RECOVERY PARAMETERS #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # restore_command # # specifies the shell command that is executed to copy log files # back from archival storage. The command string may contain %f, # which is replaced by the name of the desired log file, and %p, # which is replaced by the absolute path to copy the log file to. # # This parameter is *required* for an archive recovery, but optional # for streaming replication. # # It is important that the command return nonzero exit status on failure. # The command *will* be asked for log files that are not present in the # archive; it must return nonzero when so asked. # # NOTE that the basename of %p will be different from %f; do not # expect them to be interchangeable. # #restore_command = '' # e.g. 'cp /mnt/server/archivedir/%f %p' # # # archive_cleanup_command # # specifies an optional shell command to execute at every restartpoint. # This can be useful for cleaning up the archive of a standby server. # #archive_cleanup_command = '' # # recovery_end_command # # specifies an optional shell command to execute at completion of recovery. # This can be useful for cleaning up after the restore_command. # #recovery_end_command = '' # #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # RECOVERY TARGET PARAMETERS #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # By default, recovery will rollforward to the end of the WAL log. # If you want to stop rollforward at a specific point, you # must set a recovery target. # # You may set a recovery target either by transactionId, or # by timestamp. Recovery may either include or exclude the # transaction(s) with the recovery target value (ie, stop either # just after or just before the given target, respectively). # #recovery_target_time = '' # e.g. '2004-07-14 22:39:00 EST' # #recovery_target_xid = '' # #recovery_target_inclusive = 'true' # # # If you want to recover into a timeline other than the "main line" shown in # pg_control, specify the timeline number here, or write 'latest' to get # the latest branch for which there's a history file. # #recovery_target_timeline = 'latest' # #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # STANDBY SERVER PARAMETERS #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # When standby_mode is enabled, the PostgreSQL server will work as # a standby. It tries to connect to the primary according to the # connection settings primary_conninfo, and receives XLOG records # continuously. # #standby_mode = 'off' # #primary_conninfo = '' # e.g. 'host=localhost port=5432' # # # By default, a standby server keeps streaming XLOG records from the # primary indefinitely. If you want to stop streaming and finish recovery, # opening up the system in read/write mode, specify path to a trigger file. # Server will poll the trigger file path periodically and stop streaming # when it's found. # #trigger_file = '' # #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # HOT STANDBY PARAMETERS #--------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # Hot Standby related parameters are listed in postgresql.conf # #---------------------------------------------------------------------------
