Warning of .partial wal file in PITR and Replication Environment

Hello,

 

We have a windows setup for PostgreSQL(Version 9.6).

 

We have setup replication and PITR on this PostgreSQL server.

 

For doing some OS migration activity for the PostgreSQL database servers

We created two new replication server and promoted to new master server for the same

 

During that activity we have observed in the log that said

 

Warning : The failed archive command was: copy "D:\PostgreSQL\9.6\data\pg_xlog\0000000100000A88000000F8.partial" "\\10.0.0.35\Archive_Replication\0000000100000A88000000F8.partial" | copy "D:\PostgreSQL\9.6\data\pg_xlog\0000000100000A88000000F8.partial" "\\10.0.0.35\Archive_PITR\0000000100000A88000000F8.partial"

 

Due to this it has stopped to take backup of PITR

 

So we like to know how to clean up the “.partial” file from pg_xlog and run PITR  backup smoothly

Also like to know is there any database consistency related issue ?

 

Thanks,

Am I reading that correctly or you are trying to copy twice the same
file?  Why?  Using only copy may cause corruptions if you are not
careful as a disabled write caching would cause the data to go to the OS
cache on Windows and not directly to disk.

This is the last, partial WAL segment from the previous timeline.
Normally such things are able to archive correctly, so you may want to
consider a more advanced archive command able to handle duplicates.
It is impossible to give a strict answer before knowing what you are
looking for in terms of WAL archive redundancy.

You may need to use target_timeline = 'latest' in your recovery.conf
settings as well.
