Hi, I have enabled archive in PG (v 9.2.4): archive_mode = on archive_command = 'test ! -f /usr/local/pgsql/data/archive/%f && cp %p /usr/local/pgsql/data/archive/%f' I know that pg_xlog folder is maintained by PostgreSQL automatically, when the pg_xlog folder hits to certain limit (pg_xlog is full), it will automatically archive old log files into the archive folder. Is the parameter wal_keep_segments used to control this limit? On the other hand, will PostgreSQL also automatically maintain the archive folder by itself or I need to do some housekeeping job to maintain it from time to time? Is there any PG manual command available to remove archived files by (archive) date/time? Can you please advise? regards -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
