You cannot. WAL is an integral part of the backups. You should run the
pgbackrest "check" command and look at your Postgres logs to figure out why
WAL files are not being archived. Once that is solved, try the backup again.

Hi List,
Thanks for the clarification.
If I want to start a fresh backup to the same repo server ( the one which
fails the pgbackrest backup due to the file system full outage) what all
are the steps I have to perform on the Repo Server and the DB server ?
AFAIK, These all are the steps required , correct me if I'm wrong.
1. Stop the stanza on both repo server as well as on DB server (
$sudo -u myuser pgbackrest --stanza=My_RepoX --force stop)
2. Then delete the stanza from either Repo Server or DB server ( by the
delete stanza option ) Is the deletion of the stanza needed to be
performed only at the Repo server is enough ?
3. After deletion of the stanza, delete the folders in the repo server
archive, backup respectively by ( rm -f archive , rm -rf backup
folders for My_RepoX ?)
4. Then execute the same stanza create command from the reposerver ? (
$ sudo -u myuser pgbackrest --stanza=My_RepoX --log-level-console=info
stanza-create)?
5. Then Check the stanza creation and config all perfect by ( sudo -u
myuser pgbackrest --stanza=My_RepoX --log-level-console=info check )
6. If the step 5 success, schedule the full backup from the cron
I hope this will help me to take backup afresh in case an existing
pgbackrest backup fails ( whatever the stupid reason what happened as in
my case ) .
( In my case pgbackrest fails due to the scenario I faced, I mean due to
the file system full and didn't notice it for 24 hours, even after made
space of the partition /root which got full, later on the pgbackrest
backups from cron scheduler unable to complete the backup)
If anything is wrong or not sufficient as in the 6 steps AFAIK (As this
a live Repo Server for other DB Clusters too, more than 10 nos, nothing
should go wrong) , please correct/guide me
Thank you,
Krishane
