Heikki Linnakangas 2a77355ea1 Change the retry-loop in standby mode to also try restoring files from
pg_xlog directory. This is essential for replaying WAL records that
were streamed from the master, after a standby server restart.

If a corrupt record is seen in a file restored from the archive or
streamed from the master, log it as a WARNING and keep retrying. If the
corruption is permanent, and not just a glitch in the whatever copies the
files to the archive or a network error not caught by CRC checks in TCP
for example, we will keep retrying and logging the WARNING indefinitely.
But that's better than shutting down completely, the standby is still
useful for running read-only queries. In PITR the recovery ends at such a
corrupt record, which is a bit questionable, but that's the behavior we
had in previous releases and we don't feel like chaning it now. It does
make sense for tools like pg_standby.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
