Re: online backup - v810 vs. v814

Hey Andy,

Sorry for the confusion.  That file and the one in archive_status
(*.backup.done) are from v810.  I'm wondering why my PITR backup in v814
doesn't leave me with similiear files.  Neither *.backup in pg_xlog or
*.backup.done in archive_status shows up.   I was wondering if that was by
design or I have a problem.
