Initialize a backup catalog¶

First, you need to create "a backup catalog" to store backup files and
their metadata.
It is recommended to setup archive_mode and archive_command in
postgresql.conf before initialize the backup catalog. If the variables
are initialized, pg_rman can adjust the config file to the setting.

$ pg_rman init -B <a backup catalog path>

if you want a new catalog, then you would need to point to a new
directory

When the backup catalog path exists even if it is empty directory or file,
you will see this message.
In the case, you would need to delete the directory/file.
