> I wish I had better ideas about how to thoroughly test this. [..] Hopefully the below add some confidence, I've done some further quick(?) checks today and results are good: make check-world #GOOD test_full_pri__incr_stby__restore_on_pri.sh #GOOD test_full_pri__incr_stby__restore_on_stby.sh #GOOD* test_full_stby__incr_stby__restore_on_pri.sh #GOOD test_full_stby__incr_stby__restore_on_stby.sh #GOOD* test_many_incrementals_dbcreate.sh #GOOD test_many_incrementals.sh #GOOD test_multixact.sh #GOOD test_pending_2pc.sh #GOOD test_reindex_and_vacuum_full.sh #GOOD test_truncaterollback.sh #GOOD test_unlogged_table.sh #GOOD test_across_wallevelminimal.sh # GOOD(expected failure, that walsummaries are off during walminimal and incremental cannot be taken--> full needs to be taken after wal_level=minimal) CFbot failed on two hosts this time, I haven't looked at the details yet (https://cirrus-ci.com/task/6425149646307328 -> end of EOL? -> LOG: WAL summarizer process (PID 71511) was terminated by signal 6: Aborted?) The remaining test idea is to have a longer running DB under stress test in more real-world conditions and try to recover using chained incremental backups (one such test was carried out on patchset v6 and the result was good back then). -J.
