OK, in an another scenario I can see , "-t server" working with
"--server-compression" option but not with -z or -Z ?
"-t server" with option "-z" / or (-Z )
[tushar@localhost bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -t server:/tmp/dataN -Xnone -z
--no-manifest -p 9033
pg_basebackup: error: only tar mode backups can be compressed
Try "pg_basebackup --help" for more information.
tushar@localhost bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -t server:/tmp/dataNa -Z 1
-Xnone --server-compression=gzip4 --no-manifest -p 9033
pg_basebackup: error: only tar mode backups can be compressed
Try "pg_basebackup --help" for more information.
"-t server" with "server-compression" (working)
[tushar@localhost bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -t server:/tmp/dataN -Xnone
--server-compression=gzip4 --no-manifest -p 9033
NOTICE: WAL archiving is not enabled; you must ensure that all required
WAL segments are copied through other means to complete the backup
