Sure. > The log message "full_page_writes on master is set invalid more than > once during online backup" should read "at least once" rather than > "more than once".

Image: CreateCheckPoint() { if (!shutdown && XLogStandbyInfoActive()) { LogStandbySnapshot() XLogReportParameters() } } XLogReportParameters() { if (fpw == 'off' || ... ) XLOGINSERT() } However, it'll write XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE every checkpoints when FPW is 'off'. (It will increases the amount of WAL.) Is it OK?
