Hello. On the page https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/runtime-config-wal.html Actual: >To start the server in targeted recovery mode, create a file called recovery.signal in the data directory. If both standby.signal and recovery.signal files are created, standby mode takes precedence. Targeted recovery mode ends when the archived WAL is fully replayed, or when recovery_target is reached. In this mode, the parameters from both this section and Section 20.5.6 will be used.
Expected: >To start the server in targeted recovery mode, create a file called recovery.signal in the data directory. If both standby.signal and recovery.signal files are created, standby mode takes precedence. Targeted recovery mode ends and recovery.signal file is removed when the archived WAL is fully replayed, or when recovery_target is reached. In this mode, the parameters from both this section and Section 20.5.6 will be used. File 'recovery.signal' is not removed when `recovery_target_action` is *shutdown*.
Except that doesn't seem to be true since "pause" is the default action.
We probably should add instead:
Targeted recovery mode ends when the archived WAL is fully replayed, or when recovery_target is reached.
The server is left in the state corresponding to the recovery_target_action setting.
