Subject: Fix documentation of pg_start_backup and pg_stop_backup functions.
X-Git-Tag: REL_11_3~33
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cee3cfd75c20b14a3a38c4408e798f1c51701477;p=postgresql

Fix documentation of pg_start_backup and pg_stop_backup functions.

This commit adds the description that "non-exclusive" pg_start_backup
and pg_stop_backup can be executed even during recovery. Previously
it was wrongly documented that those functions are not allowed to be
executed during recovery.

Back-patch to 9.6 where non-exclusive backup API was added.
