You expose yourself to race conditions with such methods if a
checkpoint has the bad idea to recycle past segments that your logic
is copying. So I would advise to not do that. Instead of using the
archive command, you should also consider using pg_receivexlog
combined with a replication slot. This brings way more control with
the error handling.
