I did not follow the instructions in the document to turn off the pitr function before restoring, but kept it on, but it was still successfully restored. So, what is the reason for this description in the document?
This is because leaving PITR enabled can potentially interfere with the restoration process. PITR relies on binary logs to apply changes, and during a restore, these logs may conflict with the state of the restored data or result in unexpected behavior of log files.
It is best to apply these important notes to avoid issues.
