众所周知，Oracle下可以使用rman进行物理备份，支持数据库的全量、增量、归档的备份模式;而PostgreSQL作为开源数据库，也推出了开源功工具pg_rman，同样具备了oracle rman大部分的功能。本文写的很早，近期才翻出来，挂到博客上，希望能帮助需要的朋友。
1、下载安装软件
[root@mydb01 ~]# wget https://github.com/ossc-db/pg_rman/releases/download/V1.3.6/pg_rman-1.3.6-1.pg10.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
[root@mydb01 ~]# yum -y localinstall pg_rman-1.3.6-1.pg10.rhel7.x86_64.rpm2、配置PG参数
首先设置postgres用户的profile，加入以下内容：
-bash-4.2$ vi .bash_profile
export PATH=/usr/pgsql-10/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/pgsql-10/lib
export BACKUP_PATH=/u02/backups
-bash-4.2$ vi pg_hba.conf
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5
-bash-4.2$ vi postgresql.conf
listen_addresses = '*'
port = 5432
wal_level = archive ------->>若为HOT STANDBY环境则此处设置为hot_standby
archive_mode = on
archive_command = 'test ! -f /u02/archivelog/%f && cp %p /u02/archivelog/%f'
[root@mydb01 ~]# systemctl restart postgresql10.service3、初始化备份环境
[root@mydb01 ~]# su - postgres
-bash-4.2$ pg_rman init4、全备份
-bash-4.2$ pg_rman backup --backup-mode=full
INFO: copying database files
INFO: copying archived WAL files
INFO: backup complete
INFO: Please execute 'pg_rman validate' to verify the files are correctly copied.
INFO: start deleting old archived WAL files from ARCLOG_PATH (keep files = 10, keep days = 10)

INFO: does not include the backup just tak备份完成后，可以使用下面的命令进行验证：
-bash-4.2$ pg_rman validate

INFO: backup "2018-03-28 16:21:34" is valid

删除/var/lib/pgsql/10/data文件夹或者清空，然后进行恢复操作。如果data文件夹是新建的，则必须注意data目录的属性为700，否则在恢复的时候会报错。
-bash-4.2$ pg_rman restore --recovery-target-time "2018-03-29 14:35:53"
