If it's not the database but only the WAL archive that's NFS'd, it might be possible to live with it, but you'll need to put some defenses into your archive restore script to cope with such events. As far as restarting goes: I think you can restart from here without first redoing your base-backup restore, but as previously noted it'll still read through the same WAL files it looked at before. You won't save much except the time to redo the base restore. regards, tom lane
