Summary
This PR adds tracking of the last successfully archived WAL file timestamp to the ObjectStore status and exposes it as a Prometheus metric.
Changes
LastArchivedWALTimefield to theRecoveryWindowstruct in the ObjectStore APIMotivation
This metric enables monitoring of WAL archiving activity, helps detect situations where WAL archiving may have stalled and also helps with setting the correct end limit for the recovery window - which is very important for backup and restore operations using the barman plugin.
Closes #629
