as.done during recovery when stream connection is abruptly cut when this segment is switched, marking it as .ready in
archive_statusand simply letting this segment in pg_xlog because it will neither be recycled nor removed. I have not
beenable to look much at this code these days, so I am not sure how invasive it would be in back-branches, but perhaps
weshould try to improve code such as when a segment file is switched and connection to the is cut, we guarantee that
thisfile is completed and marked as .done.<br />-- <br />Michael<br /></div></div>
