Hello, I have a working warm standby system, running 8.4 (thanks for urging me to upgrade from the rehdat provided release). One of the new requirements is going to be for (a non-DBA) admin to easily swap services between the two servers for maintenance. The first move runs easily as expected- postgres ships the last partial wal immediately on shutdown, trigger the standby and we're up. I'm now running into issues bringing the first server back up in standby mode. After the second server finishes recovery, the major number of the wal files is incremented (say from 00000001 to 00000002), and the 00000002.history file is shipped back to the first server. The first server however is still looking for 00000001x files. Is there a way to ship back the missing information from the recovery process, without doing another base backup of data/ ?
