Both yes. I've used omnipitr. Heavy logged. So this is on master:

postgresql.conf:

archive_mode = on
archive_command =
'/usr/local/pgsql/scripts/omnipitr/bin/omnipitr-archive --config-file
/usr/local/pgsql/core/scripts/omnipitr/config/archive "%p"'

/usr/local/pgsql/core/scripts/omnipitr/config/archive:

But now see some unexpected problem. Shipping for
0000000400004C4D00000090 was runned twice. But probably it is caused
by me - I've tried to put file again in master pg_xlog from d0.XXX and
run CHECKPOINT on master. But this didn't worked out.

I have WAL files:

d0:/usr/local/pgsql/core/wal # ls -laT  0000000400004C4D00000090
0000000400004C4D00000091 0000000400004C4D00000092

On slave, recovery.conf:

In the time of writing it I switched from OmniPITR:

restore_command =
'/usr/local/pgsql/scripts/omnipitr/bin/omnipitr-restore --config-file
/usr/local/pgsql/core/scripts/omnipitr/config/restore -sr "%f" "%p"'

To:

restore_command = 'cp /usr/local/pgsql/core/wal/%f %p'

And manualy rsynced files from d0.XXX to /usr/local/pgsql/core/wal/ directory.

As I wrote, I've only shipped up to 0000000400004C4D00000092. File
0000000400004C4D00000093 was archived after slave managed to start and
successfuly start streaming WAL.

But I've done this. When I've noticed that slave is OK - I stopped it,
changed back to OmniPITR restore_command, and started again. So full
log:
