Обсуждение: 0 % Data lost

Hi all,

I need to use PITR for to do backup in a critical enviroment, but this configuration save the segment files in the backup directory only when the segment file (in pg_xlog) is full, ¿Is there any way to configure the WAL like a real online backup?


In my enviroment is necesary the 0% data lost, any idea?.

regards,

The only way to get 0% data loss is some form of syncronous replication,
which is rather difficult to implement, especially across a WAN.

There is pgCluster and pgpool, both of which do syncronous replication,
but it's also statement based which has some serious rammifications.
