BARMAN_HOST SERVER_NAME WAL_PATH
This script will be used as an 'archive_command' based on the put-wal feature of Barman. A ssh
connection will be opened to the Barman host.
positional arguments:
BARMAN_HOST The host of the Barman server.
SERVER_NAME The server name configured in Barman from which WALs are taken.
WAL_PATH The value of the '%p' keyword (according to 'archive_command').
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version show program's version number and exit
-U USER, --user USER The user used for the ssh connection to the Barman server. Defaults to
'barman'.
--port PORT The port used for the ssh connection to the Barman server.
-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
configuration file on the Barman server
-t, --test test both the connection and the configuration of the requested PostgreSQL
server in Barman for WAL retrieval. With this option, the 'wal_name'
mandatory argument is ignored.
--md5 Use MD5 as the hash algorithm to maintain compatibility between mismatched
client and server versions.
-z, --gzip gzip-compress the WAL file before sending it
-j, --bzip2 bzip2-compress the WAL file before sending it
--xz xz-compress the WAL file before sending it
--snappy snappy-compress the WAL file before sending it (requires optional python-
snappy library)
--zstd zstd-compress the WAL file before sending it (requires optional zstandard
library)
--lz4 lz4-compress the WAL file before sending it (requires optional lz4
library)
--compression-level COMPRESSION_LEVEL
A compression level for the specified compression algorithm
-p PARALLEL, --parallel PARALLEL
Specifies the maximum number of WALs to archive in parallel
--prefetch-cache-dir PREFETCH_CACHE_DIR
Directory where to store cache metadata when using --parallel. Defaults to
'/tmp/barman-SERVER_NAME-COMPUTED_HASH'.
