During recovery process of a self contained backup, how postgres know to stop reading wal when consistency is reached?
Because it knows the full packup info. It will observe the
STOP WAL LOCATION: 3BC7/4B000130 (file 0000000200003BC70000004B)
inside the backup file
It's a full contained backup because you haven't called with the -X method none , and it doesn't get into standby because you haven't called with --write-recovery-conf !
I believe by default it will do what you meant that you want.
