recovery-config.sgml:<br/>- the fact that pause_at_recovery_target is deprecated.<br />- the fact that both parameters
cannotbe used at the same time.<br />Let's not surprise the users with behaviors they may expect or guess and document
thisstuff precisely..<br /><span class=""></span></div></blockquote></div>Btw, you are missing as well the addition of
thisparameter in recovery.conf.sample (mentioned by Fujii-san upthread). It would be nice to have a description
paragraphas well similarly to what is written for pause_at_recovery_target.<br />-- <br /><div
