>        Specifies whether recovery should pause when the recovery target

        This is intended to allow queries to be executed against the
        database to check if this recovery target is the most desirable
        point for recovery. The paused state can be resumed by using
        <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>pg_xlog_replay_resume()</CODE
> (See
        <A
HREF="functions-admin.html#FUNCTIONS-RECOVERY-CONTROL-TABLE"
>Table 9-62</A
>), which then
        causes recovery to end. If this recovery target is not the
        desired stopping point, then shutdown the server, change the
        recovery target settings to a later target and restart to
        continue recovery.
