Hi, we run a lot of PG14 and lower. We do VM snapshots, which we backup.
Before the snapshot we run a quiesce script which also runs
pg_start_backup(). After a few seconds the snapshot if finished and we
call pg_stop_backup.
This is working file for us, but pg15 removed this function and replaced
it with pg_backup_start(), which however requires the session to be
open, otherwise we get:
WARNING: aborting backup due to backend exiting before
pg_backup_stop was called
For pg15 do I need to keep the session open, will the snapshot contain
uncorruped data?
thank you.
