archive_command is used only when archive_library is not set AFAIK, but an archive_library could also freely use an archive_command if it wishes to. But, yes, I agree that the current wording in backup.sgml is kind of confusing because of this reason, so I am fine to have a reference to both archive_library *and* archive_command in this area of the docs. All WAL records required for the backup must contain sufficient full-page writes, which requires you to enable <varname>full_page_writes</varname> on the primary and - not to use a tool in your <varname>archive_library</varname> to remove - full-page writes from WAL files. + not to use a tool to remove full-page writes from WAL files. Hmm. My opinion here is to do a simplification, and remove simply the last part of the paragraph about tools that manipulate WAL files as the first sentence makes it clear, in my opinion, that if those FPWs are not around the server could become kaput. Most of the changes in PGSQL15_tags_fix.patch seem right to me. Still, you'd better check that the docs compile, as of: > --- a/doc/src/sgml/basebackup-to-shell.sgml > +++ b/doc/src/sgml/basebackup-to-shell.sgml > @@ -12,9 +12,9 @@ > called <literal>shell</literal>.

The command will receive > + <literal>pg_basebackup > --target=shell:<replaceable>DETAIL_STRING<replaceable></literal>, I am pretty sure that this line is going to cause a compilation failure of the docs. Anyway, this should be use a <command> markup, no? -- Michael
