HI, I'm obviously new to this list, but I am also new to postgres as well.. I am looking for someone who can dumb a database on one server (postgres 7.1.3) and restore it on another server (postgres 7.1.3) some OS on both machines, should be pretty easy, I just have failed in every attempt. Thanks in advance for anything that could be offered, Mickey

How did you try to do it, and what error did you get?

Hi Mickey, This is what I use to do a similar thing. You need to use pg_dumpall which should be in the bin folder of your postgresql distribution. Run this command (I'm assuming the user postgres is your DB superuser) :- pg_dumpall -U postgres > /tmp/alldata.dmp This should dump your entire database cluster into one file. You can then transfer this file to your other machine for restore which can be done like this (again, you will find the psql command in the bin folder) :- psql -U postgres < /tmp/alldata.dmp You can put the dump into any dir or file I've just used /tmp and alldata.dmp for no particular reason. Hope this helps. :)) Roy Crombleholme Systems/Software Engineer ICT Services -- "Somethings come from nothing, nothing seems to come from somethings" -- SFA - Guerilla ******************** This e-mail contains information intended for the addressee only.
