WHAT’S NEW
This update is notifying you of a new software release of Backup and Recovery Manager 2.12.1. Backup and Recovery Manager (or Barman) is an open-source administration tool for remote backups and disaster recovery of PostgreSQL servers in business-critical environments. It relies on PostgreSQL’s robust and reliable Point-In-Time Recovery technology, allowing DBAs to remotely manage a complete catalogue of backups and the recovery phase of multiple remote servers – all from one location. Barman is distributed under GNU GPL 3 and maintained by EDB.
Highlights of this release include:

Features |
Type |
|
Allow Barman to be run with the GNU parallel command. With GNU parallel, a number of backups can be started in parallel. Once a backup has finished, the next will be started until the list of backups has been fully processed. |
Enhancement | |
|
With PG 13 wal_keep_segments was renamed to wal_keep_size, so Barman was updated to retain compatibility. |
Bug Fix | |
|
Allow to set target timeline, together with one of the other mutually exclusive recovery targets (target_time, target_xid, target_lsn, target_name, and target_immediate). |
