DESCRIPTION

       Retrieve a WAL file from the xlog archive of a specified server. By default, if the requested WAL file is
       found, it is returned as uncompressed content to STDOUT.

PARAMETERS

       SERVER_NAME
              Name of the server in barman node

       WAL_NAME
              Id of the backup in barman catalog.

       -j / --bzip2
              Output will be compressed using bzip2.

       -z / --gzip
              Output will be compressed using gzip.

       --keep-compression
              Do not uncompress the file content. The output will be the original compressed file.

       -o     Destination directory where barman will store the WAL file.

       -p     Specify  an  integer value greater than or equal to 1 to retrieve WAL files from the specified WAL
              file up to the value specified by this parameter. When using this option, get-wal returns  a  list
              of zero to the specified WAL segment names, with one name per row.

       -P / --partial
              Additionally, collect partial WAL files (.partial).

       -t / --test
              Test  both  the  connection  and  configuration of the specified Postgres server in Barman for WAL
              retrieval. When this option is used, the required WAL_NAME argument is disregarded.

       WARNING:
          -z / --gzip and -j /  --bzip2 options are deprecated and will  be  removed  in  the  future.  For  WAL
          compression,  please  make  sure  to  enable  it  directly  on  the  Barman server via the compression
          configuration option.
