pg_arman is a backup and recovery manager for PostgreSQL servers able to do
|
2014-01-30 09:58:55 +03:00
|
|
|
differential and full backup as well as restore a cluster to a
|
2013-12-15 16:05:36 +03:00
|
|
|
state defined by a given recovery target. It is designed to perform
|
|
|
|
|
periodic backups of an existing PostgreSQL server, combined with WAL
|
|
|
|
|
archives to provide a way to recover a server in case of failure of
|
2014-01-30 09:58:55 +03:00
|
|
|
server because of a reason or another. Its differential backup
|
2014-01-30 09:36:22 +03:00
|
|
|
facility reduces the amount of data necessary to be taken between
|
2013-12-15 16:05:36 +03:00
|
|
|
two consecutive backups.

|
|
|
|
|
as well as a raw source tree. Pass the path to the PostgreSQL source tree
|
|
|
|
|
to make, in the top_srcdir variable:

|
|
|
|
2016-01-19 02:26:16 +02:00
|
|
|
make USE_PGXS=1 top_srcdir=<path to PostgreSQL source tree>
|
2013-12-15 16:05:36 +03:00
