Don't even think about it --- unless you are prepared to reverse the change during restore. You could possibly rename NNNNNN to postgresql-wal-NNNNNN or something like that, and then back again in the restore script. But pray tell what is the point? Just put them in a subdirectory that explains what they are, and save yourself some trouble. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
