hi,
when i create a basebackup of my cluster called “postgres13” and then removed this cluster completely from kubernetes except for the backup (base backup + WAL-files), however I cannot recover the cluster under the same name “postgres13”
The recovery fails with error “expected empty WAL files.
I can however recover the cluster under a new name (like “postgres13-v2”) as long as it is not the original name.
Apparently the WAL-files of the original cluster “postgres13” can only be played against a new cluster with empty WAL files.
This has the disadvantage that I have tu update the loadbalancer that exposes the cluster aswell.
Is this intended behavior?
I would expect to be able to recover my postgres13 cluster under the same name:
