Looks like using that FILE= expression, I ended up with a bad file choice last
night immediately after the base backup:
Copying 0000000100000015000000F8.0088A490.backup to
/mnt/pgbackup/pitr/0000000100000015000000F8.0088A490.backup
Also, I noticed that rsync had a file disappear out from under it during the
base backup:
file has vanished: "/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_subtrans/0743"
So, I have modified my FILE= expression to the following:
FILE=`ls -tp /pg_xlog/ | grep -v "backup\|/" | head -1`
Which gives me this file: 00000001000000160000002A
Given these in the pg_xlog dir.
00000001000000160000002A
00000001000000160000002B
00000001000000160000002C
00000001000000160000002D
00000001000000160000002E
00000001000000160000002F
000000010000001600000030
000000010000001600000031
Removing the -t takes yields the same result as long as I grep out the .backup
files.
