When backing up and restoring tablespaces pgBackRest only operates on the subdirectory created for the version of PostgreSQL being run against. Since multiple versions can live in a tablespace (especially during a binary upgrade) this prevents too many files from being copied during a backup and other versions possibly being wiped out during a `--delta` restore. This only applies to PostgreSQL >= 9.0 -- before that only one PostgreSQL version could use a tablespace.
Keepalives are now used to make sure the remote for the main process does not timeout while the thread remotes do all the work. The error messages for timeouts was also improved to make debugging easier.
* Better messaging for expiration.
* Fixed already stopped message.
* retention-archive and retention-archive-type now use retention-full and 'full' when not specified.
* Fixed issue where backup-user was required (should default to backrest).
* ExecuteTest now supports retries.
* Fixed issue where log test was not comparing test logs.
* Fixed issue where test logs would not match for ssh connection errors
Unable to reproduce this anymore. It seems to have been fixed with the last round of config changes. Add regression tests to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Replaced IPC::System::Simple and Net::OpenSSH with IPC::Open3 to eliminate CPAN dependency for multiple distros. Using open3 will also be used for local processes so it make sense to switch now.
* Includes updating the manifest to format 4. It turns out the manifest and .info files were not very good for providing information. A format update was required anyway so worked through the backlog of changes that would require a format change.
* Multiple database versions are now supported in the archive. Does't actually work yet but the structure should be good.
* Tests use more constants now that test logs can catch name regressions.
1) Re-checksums files that have checksums in the manifest
2) Recopies files that do not have a checksum
3) Saves the manifest at regular intervals to preserve checksums
4) Unit tests for all cases (that I can think of)
Moved Remote code from pg_backrest.pl to Config.pm.
Added version specific code to regression tests and Db.pm.
archive-push checks for duplicate WAL in the archive.
archive-push reads the db sys id to match up WAL to the correct archive.
