Hi,
Every day I'm arguing with 3 or 4 people on this point.
My point is that I have to do a tarball, a tar command as part of online
backup with postgresql v814. I keep saying that the reason we do a
tarbal (online backup) and not individual dumps is that we want the PITR
capability. I've been fighting so many people on this point I want to
double check with the group that.
1. There is no way to do a PITR recovery from a dump file at one time
during the day.
2. There is no way to do a PITR from SLONY1.
Does everyone agree with me on those points?
Yes.
You can however perform a psuedo 5 minute delay replication with PITR.

Joshua D. Drake
