Archive

This tutorial will show you how to do an archive using pgmoneta.

Preface

This tutorial assumes that you have an installation of PostgreSQL 13+ and pgmoneta.

See Install pgmoneta for more detail.

Creating an archive

pgmoneta-cli -c pgmoneta.conf archive primary newest current /tmp/
pgmoneta-cli -c pgmoneta.conf archive primary newest current /tmp/

will take the latest backup and all Write-Ahead Log (WAL) segments and create an archive named /tmp/primary-<timestamp>.tar.zstd. This archive will contain an up-to-date copy.
