Hi team,

With non-exclusive backup method, trying backup from standby node.
But pg_stop_backup function returns "WAL archiving is not enabled..." and the logs are not archived to WAL directory configured.

Please check if I am missing anything in configuring this properly,
Server was restarted after setting the archiving params in postgresql.conf

Below is from version 14:

postgres=# select pg_start_backup('label', false, false);
pg_start_backup
-----------------
0/60000D8
(1 row)

postgres=# select pg_stop_backup('false');
NOTICE: WAL archiving is not enabled; you must ensure that all required WAL segments are copied through other means to complete the backup
pg_stop_backup
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(0/60001C0,"START WAL LOCATION: 0/60000D8 (file 000000010000000000000006)+

postgres=# select pg_is_in_recovery();
pg_is_in_recovery

postgres=# show wal_level;

postgres=# show archive_command;

copy "%p" "D:\PostgreSQL\14\standby_14\wal\%f"
