pg_rman
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pg_rman is a backup and recovery manager for PostgreSQL servers able to do
|
||
|
|
incremental, archive and full backup as well as restore a cluster to a
|
||
|
|
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
|
||
|
|
server because of a reason or another. Its incremental and archive backup
|
||
|
|
facilities reduces the amount of data necessary to be taken between
|
||
|
|
two consecutive backups.

Download
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

Installation
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Compiling pg_rman requires a PostgreSQL installation and can be done in
|
||
|
|
two ways:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Put pg_rman project directory inside PostgreSQL source tree as
|
||
|
|
contrib/pg_rman, and use "make" to compile
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Keep the project directory as-is and use the PGXS development
|
||
|
|
infrastructure provided by a PostgreSQL installation to perform the
|
||
|
|
compilation: "make USE_PGXS=1"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition, you must have pg_config in $PATH.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The current version of pg_rman is compatible with PostgreSQL 9.3 and
|
||
|
|
upper versions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Documentation
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All the documentation is written and maintained in pg_rman.txt.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Regression tests
|
||
|
|
----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The test suite of pg_rman is available in the code tree and can be
|
||
|
|
launched in a way similar to common PostgreSQL extensions and modules:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) "make check" or "make installcheck" if the project directory is
|
||
|
|
located in PostgreSQL code tree.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) "make installcheck" on an already installed server if project
|
||
|
|
directory is kept as-is.
