[ --force ]
[ { -h | --help } ]
SERVER_NAME [ SERVER_NAME ... ]

DESCRIPTION

Execute pg_switch_wal() on the target server (Postgres versions 10 and later) or pg_switch_xlog() (for Postgres versions 8.3 to 9.6).

PARAMETERS

SERVER_NAME

Name of the server in barman node

--archive

Waits for one WAL file to be archived. If no WAL file is archived within a specified time (default: 30 seconds), Barman will terminate with a failure exit code. This option is also available on standby servers.

--archive-timeout

Specify the amount of time in seconds (default: 30 seconds) that the archiver will wait for a new WAL file to be archived before timing out. This option is also available on standby servers.

--force

Forces the switch by executing a CHECKPOINT before pg_switch_wal() .

NOTE:

Running a CHECKPOINT may increase I/O load on the Postgres server, so use this option cautiously.

-h / --help

Show a help message and exit. Provides information about command usage.
