Hi,

Will pgbackrest properly backup and restore the cluster if data/base, 
data/pg_xlog and data/pg_log are symlinks?

PGDATA=/var/lib/pgsql/9.6/data
$PGDATA/base -> /Database/9.6/base
$PGDATA/pg_log -> /Database/9.6/pg_log
$PGDATA/pg_xlog -> /Database/9.6/pg_xlog

(I'm not just defining data_directory because the DBAs are used to looking 
in $PGDATA and seeing all the relevant files.)

Thanks
