pitrery 3.4
===========
* Support Postgres 14.
* Packages for CentOS 8, Debian buster and bullseye.
* Allow to customize recovery_end_commend.
* Fix rsync options protection.
pitrery 3.3
===========
* [Bugfix] pitrery restore: could not get the ending timestamp (#138)
pitrery 3.2
===========
* Pitrery version 3.2 is compatible with PostgreSQL version 13.
* Add CI for local tests (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
* Abort check if backup_timestamp is not available (#130)
pitrery 3.1
===========
* Preserve "xlog" scripts as symlinks in debian and rpm packages #97
Please update your "archive_command" and "restore_command" parameters to use
the new scripts "archive_wal" and "restore_wal".
* Report "qw" update to archive_wal and restore_wal #94, #110 (thanks pgstef)
Please update if you are using bash version < 4.2.
* Release process review
pitrery 3.0
===========
* Pitrery version 3.0 is compatible with PostgreSQL version 12.
PostgreSQL in this version has changed how recovery configuration is managed.
There is be no more "recovery.conf" file:
- The recovery configuration keys are read from the postgresql.conf file.
Upon restoration, recovery.conf settings are written by pitrery at the
end of the postgresql.conf file.
- A "recovery.signal" or "standby.signal" will be used by the restored
cluster to know what action to take
A new option is declared: RESTORE_MODE (or the "-m" switch). For
restoration, it must be set either to "recovery" or "standby".
- Multiple conflicting recovery_target* specifications are not allowed.
PostgreSQL will make the check on startup.
- We now advance to the latest timeline by default.
* Since PostgreSQL version 10, "xlog" has been renamed to "wal". Make
this change in pitrery:
- "archive_xlog" script is renamed to "archive_wal"
- "restore_xlog" script is renamed to "restore_wal"
- configuration key PGXLOG is renamed to PGWAL
- the WAL archive directory ARCHIVE_DIR is set by default to:
"$BACKUP_DIR/archived_wal"
pitrery 2.4
===========
* New maintainer: Thibaut Madelaine.
* Warn about untested major version on restore.
pitrery 2.3
===========
* Add progress information when checking for missing archived WAL files
* Support different WAL sizes in check, introduced in PostgreSQL 11
* Bugfixes in check command
pitrery 2.2
===========
* Change the command line switch used to pass a configuration file to pitrery
from -c to -f.
* Optionnaly encrypt tar backups and archived WAL files.
* Store the commandline executed and the configuration file inside the backup
pitrery 2.1
===========
* Restrict permissions of backup directories to the user that created them
* Add options to the check action to verify backup policy and archived WAL
files
* Add RSYNC_WHOLEFILE and RSYNC_BWLIMIT configuration options to
tweak the behaviour of rsync when performing base backups.
pitrery 2.0
===========
* Regroup all action into the main script
* Change the sed commands in the Makefile to have the script work
without modifications
* Command line switches and options to specify if the backup is
local, the user, host and target directory, are now merged into a
SSH style syntax: `[[user@]host:]/path`. Not providing a host
tells pitrery the backups are local.
* Rename the default configuration file from `pitr.conf` to `pitrery.conf`
* Comment out all parameters in the configuration file so that they
do not interfere
* Remove the BACKUP_LABEL option, subdirectory and -l switch. They
were not used.
* Support for PostgreSQL 10
pitrery 1.13
============
* Fix tablespaces links being overwritten by postmaster on 9.5 due
to tablespace_map. This conflicted with our tablespace relocation
* Fix the purge of WAL file that would remove all archives if the
stop file is missing
* Fix backups failing due to incorrect parsing of the stop time
when iso8601 timestamps are used
pitrery 1.12
============
* New -m option for archive_xlog to chmod the archived file to the
specified octal permission bits
* Fix the restore so that the backup_label is restore whan used with
PostgreSQL 9.6
* Remove support of deprecated compression parameters, renamed in 1.9
pitrery 1.11
============
* New configure action to create a configuration file from the
command line.
* New check action to test configuration files.
* Do not backup replication slots state files and produce an SQL
file to recreate them after restore.
* Add a dry run option (-N) for purge.
* Improve the quoting and ensure unusual characters are handled
properly.
* Add manpages for the user facing commands, pitrery, archive_xlog
and restore_xlog.
* Relax restrictions on the target date format on restore. It was
meant to have a working format common to all free unices
platforms, but the user can just adapt the command to its
system. So now one can do run: pitrery restore -d '1 hour ago', or
anything the local date command can parse.
* New ARCHIVE_OVERWRITE configuration parameter along with -O option
(do not overwrite) for archive_xlog to check if the target files
exists before archiving, when set to "no" or -O is on the command
line.
* New ARCHIVE_CHECK (-H) and ARCHIVE_FLUSH (-F) for archive_xlog. The
first one check md5 sum of the archived WAL file, the second force
a flush to disk.
* Make use of the new backup API of PostgreSQL 9.6
* Optionally name backups dir with ISO 8601 timestamps, with config
option USE_ISO8601_TIMESTAMPS and command line switch -t for the
backup action.
* French translation of the documentation.
* Bugfixes and better handling of unusual characters in paths
pitrery 1.10
============
* Fix issue in restore_xlog not using SSH user and host found in the
configuration file, thus preventing restore to work out of the
box.
* Ensure archive_xlog create the target directory on remote hosts
* Only purge WAL files when there are some WAL files to remove
pitrery 1.9
===========
* Do not exit without error when the server is in recovery. This is
not a consistent behaviour.
* Improve the speed of the purge of archives WAL files by stopping
the purge when the limit is reached.
* Add the -T switch along with the LOG_TIMESTAMP option to prefix
messages of backup, restore and purge with the date and time.
* Rename the compression configuration parameters for WAL files to
avoid confusion :
* `COMPRESS_BIN` -> `ARCHIVE_COMPRESS_BIN`
* `COMPRESS_SUFFIX` -> `ARCHIVE_COMPRESS_SUFFIX`
* `UNCOMPRESS_BIN` -> `ARCHIVE_UNCOMPRESS_BIN`
* Add the -c and -s switch to archive_xlog and restore_xlog which
allow to give the (un)compression command and compressed file suffix
respectively.
* No longer use command line switch to configure restore_xlog for
restore_command in restore action. Give a configuration file or
the full command to use. Thus only -r and -C (changed to give the
configuration file) remains for archived WAL options.
* Add the -l switch to pitrery. It lists the configuration files
inside the default configuration directory.
* Include all recovery parameters commented out in the recovery.conf
generated at restore.
pitrery 1.8
===========
* Exclude temporary locations from backup
* Support pax to create hardlinks, for better portability. GNU cp
stays the default, the configuration goes to the Makfile.
* Add a -V switch to the pitrery wrapper script to show the version.
* Add an option (-R) to overwrite target directory on restore.
pitrery 1.7
===========
* Show the storage method and compression suffix when listing
backups in verbose mode.
* Allow configuration of compression tools used when storing backup
contents using tar.
* Remove the `pitr_mgr` symlink.
* Have `archive_xlog` create the local target directory so that we don't
end up archiving on the same path, when the user forget to create it.
* Run backup hook command even if the backup fails. The exit code of the
backup is available to the hook in the PITRERY_EXIT_CODE env variable.
* Bugfix on sed -E vs sed -r, use the later for older GNU sed.
pitrery 1.6
===========
* Exit without error when backup is run on a hot standby
server. Issue a warning message when run interactively, so an
active cron job does not send any mail.
* Bugfixes and improvements on documentation
pitrery 1.5
===========
* Force the checkpoint on pg_start_backup() when possible
* Support rsync for the base backup. tar remains the default with a
new -s option for backup_pitr and the STORAGE configuration
variable
* Save configuration files if they are outside of PGDATA
* Rename `pitr_mgr` to `pitrery`, with a symlink for backward
compatibility
* Make the time based purge compatible with the count purge,
allowing to purge backups based on age _and_ keeping a minimum
number of backups
* Make the old WAL purge better by comparing parts of the file name
instead of the whole. Bash does not handle well the full file name
when converted to a number (too big)
* Safely purge old .backup files. Always keep .history files
* Improve documentation
* Better check the input file in archive_xlog
* Use rsync to safely transfer to the remote host in archive_xlog
* Document compression tools options
* Add a verbose mode to list, with sizes and locations
* Allow to specify the oid of a tablespace when give path for relocation:
-t oid:/new/path or -t name:/new/path is possible
pitrery 1.4
===========
* Merge archiving configuration with pitr_mgr configuration
* Add search for configuration file on its basename in archive_xlog
and restore_xlog
* Add more options to restore to configure the restore_command
* Fix hang on purge when all backups are removed
* Fix on tablespace handling when no tablespaces exist
* Add an UPGRADE documentation
* Copy docs and configuration to the documentation directory
pitrery 1.3
===========
* Support PostgreSQL 9.2
* Relocation of tablespaces on restore
* Simpler archiving script, only archive to one place
* Support for username on SSH connections
* Better display of the list of backups
* Add a summary of all information needed for a restore
* Add a dry run mode on restore
* Lots of bug fixes
pitrery 1.2
===========
This version is buggy, do not use it.
pitrery 1.1
===========
* Fix backup selection date. Now backups are selected based on the
end of the base backup, a base backup is not usable until the time
of pg_stop_backup(), written as STOP TIME in the backup label.
* Correct the filtering of archived WAL segments when purging, to
avoid other files to get in the way.
* Add a cleaning of the backup directory in case the backup fails.
* Add Debian packaging
pitrery 1.0
===========
* First version
