Terminology enhancement #1011

Closed kvaikla closed 3 days ago

kvaikla commented 2 months ago

Two terminology enhancements. barman.conf Current: Barman configuration file section [servername] Could be: Renamed to something like [backup_spetsification] Why: you can in one pg server(name) setup multiple barman backups.

Restore end output Current: 

Recovery completed (start time: 2024-09-07 01:00:14.790065+03:00, elapsed time: 29 minutes, 52 seconds)
Your PostgreSQL server has been successfully prepared for recovery!

Could be:

Restore completed (start time: 2024-09-07 01:00:14.790065+03:00, elapsed time: 29 minutes, 52 seconds)
Your PostgreSQL server has been successfully prepared for recovery!

Why: Recovery completed ... prepared for recovery! :D And database is not yet recovered, but restored.

I have managed 25+ years oracle, pg backup integrations (HP Dataprotector, Veritas NetBackup), so that's why I dare to make such suggsessions.

Point two was addressed in Barman's last release. That was a good catch that I had not thought of before. I can't make sense of point one. I understand what you mean, but it really doesn't have a use case what you explained in the "why". I'm closing this now
