snapshot backup with WAL files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello Gurus,
I would like to configure our Pg db for OS file system snapshot backup with Pg WAL files, need to know if would be enough in pg db to call :
|*SELECT* *pg_start_backup*('pitr_backup');
and next take the snapshot  and after
pg_stop the backup and close the WAL files . During this time the full pg db read/writes will continue.
Are any loss of data we should may be aware during this backup procedure?
env :RHES-64 bits with LVM directories, PG 9.0, the db size >150GB
Thank you
Isabella
