Basic setup of WAL-E for continuous archiving and recovery

WAL-E needs to be installed on all machines, masters and slaves.

How to install WAL-E

Only one machine, the master, writes WAL segments via continuous archiving. The configuration for the master postgresql.conf is:

archive_mode = on
archive_command = 'envdir /etc/wal-e.d/env wal-e wal-push %p'
archive_timeout = 60

Here's how to install PostgreSQL and have it run automatically at startup, on an Ubuntu 10.04 virtual machine using Vagrant. This took me a while to figure out:

Add the default lucid32 base box to your vagrant, if you haven't already:

host> vagrant box add lucid32 http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box 

Now make a new lucid32 virtual machine and install postgresql on it:
