Thank you for the path, I saw these things:
* backup_withtablespace() does not have any documentation?
* The mkdir calls do not set a mask for the created dir, defaulting to
0777 - is this what is wanted here?
* none of the mkdir, chdir etc. calls check any error code, e.g. what
happens if one of them fails?
* different indentation between rmdir and move (tab vs. spaces):
+ rmdir($data_path);
+ move("$backup_path", "$self->{_basedir}/pgdata")
Best regards,
Tels
