fixes (7)

  • Fixed the CheckEmptyWalArchive safeguard to run correctly when restoring from a volume snapshot using CNPG-I backup/WAL plugins (e.g., plugin-barman-cloud).
  • Fixed TLS certificate verification issues when connecting to CNPG-I plugins by adding the cnpg.io/pluginServerName annotation.
  • Fixed an issue where the instance manager controller could fail to restart after an error, reporting a "controller already exists" message.
  • Fixed incorrect WAL restore path handling in plugins when the destination path is absolute, preventing path duplication issues.
  • Fixed the CREATE PUBLICATION SQL generation for multi-table publications to be backward-compatible with PostgreSQL 13+.
  • Fixed backup failures in complex pod definitions by reliably selecting the postgres container by name instead of by index.
  • Fixed bugs in cnpg report log collection, especially when fetching previous logs.
