Thanks, Looks good to me.
A couple of things that would be good to document as well in recovery-config.sgml:
- the fact that pause_at_recovery_target is deprecated.
- the fact that both parameters cannot be used at the same time.
Let's not surprise the users with behaviors they may expect or guess and document this stuff precisely..
This would make docs consistent with this block of code in xlog.c:
if (recoveryPauseAtTargetSet && actionAtRecoveryTargetSet)
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE),
errmsg("cannot set both \"%s\" and \"%s\" recovery parameters",
"pause_at_recovery_target",
"action_at_recovery_target"),
errhint("The \"pause_at_recovery_target\" is deprecated.")));
