I'm not clear how you can have two processes both issuing this message,
since it is only the archiver process that ever says this.

Do you have two archivers running on this system?
pid = 20229 and pid = 20573

Presumably pg_xlog/archive_status/00000001000000000000007F.done already
exists?

Are there two postmasters running (at all)?
Is there somehow an archiver process running from a previously shutdown
postmaster (somehow)?
