Reword its description to say that pg_rman will delete all backups older than the latest full backup necessary for recovery up to specified time. --- docs/index.html | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/index.html b/docs/index.html index 8285886c..b9efc3fb 100755 --- a/docs/index.html +++ b/docs/index.html @@ -254,8 +254,8 @@

Delete backups

-

The delete command deletes all backup files before the specified date not required by other incremental backups. Incremental backups depend on earlier validated full backup.

-

The following example deletes unneeded backup files to recovery at 12:00 11, September 2009.

+

The delete command deletes all backup files older than the latest full backup necessary for recovery up to the specified date.

+

For example, the following command deletes all backup files unnecessary for recovery up to 2015-07-30 13:30:30, which includes all backups older than the full backup with StartTime 2015-07-30 13:30:11, because that full backup can be used as a starting point for recovery up to 2015-07-30 13:30:30.
