I am looking into using pg_standby (v3) in a warm standby system. I'm going to double check it, but same machine replication seemed to work ok. When I tried to do remote server log shipping however, I had some issues. Initial setup and launch is working ok, my archive command is: 'test ! -f /var/lib/pgsql/pitr/%f && cp %p /var/lib/pgsql/pitr/%f' my restore command is: pg_standby -m -t/raid/pitr/kill /raid/pitr %f %p '/raid/pitr' is an nfs mount mounted from the primary to the standby. I suspect the problem lies there, but I thought I'd ask. here is my log on the standby following a fresh pitr load: 2007-01-11 07:40:37 EST : LOG: automatic recovery in progress 2007-01-11 07:40:37 EST : LOG: redo starts at 0/630000B0 2007-01-11 07:41:37 EST : LOG: restored log file "000000010000000000000064" from archive 2007-01-11 07:41:38 EST : LOG: restored log file "000000010000000000000065" from archive 2007-01-11 07:41:38 EST : LOG: restored log file "000000010000000000000066" from archive 2007-01-11 07:51:44 EST : LOG: could not open file "pg_xlog/000000010000000000000067" (log file 0, segment 103): No such file or directory 2007-01-11 07:51:44 EST : LOG: redo done at 0/66FFFFC8 2007-01-11 08:01:49 EST : PANIC: could not open file "pg_xlog/000000010000000000000066" (log file 0, segment 102): No such file or directory neither the primary or the standby are in production...the 3 restored files were from me manufacturing work on the primary to generate files. Is there anything obvious I should be checking? merlin
