Note: The following description applies both to Postgres-XC and PostgreSQL if not described explicitly.
This parameter specifies the named restore point, created with
pg_create_restore_point() to which recovery will proceed.
At most one of recovery_target_name,
recovery_target_time or
recovery_target_xid can be specified. The default is to
recover to the end of the WAL log.
Note: The following description applies only to Postgres-XC
This parameter specifies the time stamp up to which recovery will proceed. At most one of recovery_target_time, recovery_target_name, recovery_target_xid or recovery_target_barrier can be specified. The default is to recover to the end of the WAL log. The precise stopping point is also influenced by recovery_target_inclusive.
Note: The following description applies only to Postgres-XC
This parameter specifies the transaction ID up to which recovery will proceed. Keep in mind that while transaction IDs are assigned sequentially at transaction start, transactions can complete in a different numeric order. The transactions that will be recovered are those that committed before (and optionally including) the specified one. At most one of recovery_target_xid, recovery_target_name, recovery_target_time or recovery_target_barrier can be specified. The default is to recover to the end of the WAL log. The precise stopping point is also influenced by recovery_target_inclusive.
Note: The following description applies only to Postgres-XC
This parameter specifies the barrier ID up to which recovery will proceed. A global consistency is guaranteed when recovery is stopped at a previously successfully completed barrier. At most one of recovery_target_xid, recovery_target_time and recovery_target_barrier can be specified. The default is to recover to the end of the WAL log. The precise stopping point is also influenced by recovery_target_inclusive.
A barrier ID, to which recovery will proceed, has to be specified with CREATE BARRIER. Refer to this command for syntax details.
Note: The following description applies both to Postgres-XC and PostgreSQL if not described explicitly.
Specifies whether we stop just after the specified recovery target (true), or just before the recovery target (false). Applies to both recovery_target_time and recovery_target_xid, whichever one is specified for this recovery. This indicates whether transactions having exactly the target commit time or ID, respectively, will be included in the recovery. Default is true.
Specifies recovering into a particular timeline. The default is to recover along the same timeline that was current when the base backup was taken. Setting this to latest recovers to the latest timeline found in the archive, which is useful in a standby server. Other than that you only need to set this parameter in complex re-recovery situations, where you need to return to a state that itself was reached after a point-in-time recovery. See Section 23.3.5 for discussion.
Specifies whether recovery should pause when the recovery target
is reached. The default is true.
This is intended to allow queries to be executed against the
database to check if this recovery target is the most desirable
point for recovery. The paused state can be resumed by using
pg_xlog_replay_resume() (See
Table 9-61), which then
causes recovery to end. If this recovery target is not the
desired stopping point, then shutdown the server, change the
recovery target settings to a later target and restart to
continue recovery.
