Google Cloud Platform, snapshots and WAL

Hi everyone,

I have my PostgreSQL 9.5 server running on a VM instance on Google Compute Engine (Google Cloud Platform) on Debian Jessie (8.3), and I have another dedicated VM instance that, every night at 3.00, takes a snapshot of the whole disk, without stopping the PG instance itself. Snapshots are stored and kept by Google in an incremental way, and we keep the last 2 weeks of history. The question is: Keeping all two weeks worth of pg_xlog files, I don't think I still need a periodic pg_basebackup to perform PITR, do I?

Thanks in advance,
Moreno.
