Hi,
I found, in pg_xlog dir, several WAL segment files with old modification
timestamp but with their names greater than more recent files.
Ex.:
0000000100000000000000C6 modified today
0000000100000000000000DE modified yesterday

I thought it could not be possible.

I'm doing some tests with archiving and base backups.
Never performed a restore so far.
Sometimes I restared the server due to changes in conf files.
Never copied or manually handled files in pg_xlog dir.

What am I missing?
Regards
Pupillo
