B could open the file while it is being copied, and read to the current end of file before A has finished copying. If we used rsync it would, by default, copy to a temporary file name in the target directory and mv to the right name when complete, but we prefer the cp to a temp directory and explicitly mv, because of the subsequent rsync steps copyig out of the target directory. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
