Is it possible to do something like that (taken from Oracle world): I have two phisical disc (diskA and diskB). I would like to put: - database data files on diskA, - database WAL on diskA and diskB (dual logging), - database archive logs on diskA and diskB. With this kind of configuration, I could restore data in database to the point of any hard disk failure (assuming regular backups of database are beening done). Actually, if diskA fails, the procedure bellow should be done, if diskB fails, database should continue to operate normaly. So the recovery procedure would be something like this: - restore database, - apply archive logs, - apply WAL, - open/start database. Is this possible in PostgreSQL? Are there any other ways to achive same level of protection with PostgreSQL?
