Hello!
Is there any way to restore pg_basebackup ? Reading current documentation on

Thank you.

Try looking for "recovery":

Laurenz,
I mean it's a completely different page, but the pg_basebackup page
has an examples section. Or please put a link to pg_basebackup page to
restore/recovery page (continuous-archiving.html), explaining how to
restore a backup.
But actually, would be nice to put to the examples section of the
pg_basebackup page.
Examples:
- Take a backup with pg_basebackup:
...
- Restore backup taken with pg_basebackup:
...

A hyperlink might be a good idea.
I think that recovery is too complicted to be described on the
"pg_basebackup" reference page.

Looking again, there is such a link in the very first paragraph of
the "Description" section:
The backup is taken without affecting other clients of the database,
and can be used both for point-in-time recovery (see Section 25.3)
^
the link that I mean
and as the starting point for a log-shipping or streaming-replication
standby server (see Section 26.2).
So I don't really see how that could be any better.
Yours,
Laurenz Albe
