Could someone give me some insight to the following error message: [mqsql06:/Volumes/SQL_Set] _postgres% pg_basebackup --user=replicate --host=mqsql03 -xP -Fp --pgdata=pgsql 19439890/65873894 kB (29%), 1/1 tablespace pg_basebackup: could not get transaction log end position from server: ERROR: archive member "base/17040/25491" too large for tar format
I find the error message confusing since I have the format explicitly set to plain. Is there a solution/workaround? Can I break up the referenced file somehow? I'ld rather use pg_basebackup over the backup mode->rsync->out of backup mode dance. thanks alan
