Enabling all backup options

From

Date:
I installed EnterpriseDB PostgreSQL Plus Standard Server R2 and I want to enable each and every feature related to recovery. I want to enable WAL and other features so that at the time of disaster, my database recovery is guaranteed.

How to proceed?

If you're using PostgreSQL Plus, you should be contacting
EnterpriseDB, or use their forums, for support. While it's mostly
PostgreSQL, it is bundled with a number of other products, so "each
and every feature" may mean something else there.

If you're only talking about the features also included in PostgreSQL,
you should start by reading the chapters at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/backup.html.
