I would like to dump select tables from a database (omitting some tables).
It looks like pg_dump only allows you to dump the entire database or select single tables to dump. Is there a way to specify to pg_dump a list of tables to dump (or to omit)? I can dump all the desired tables as single dumps, but dump-many-single-tables approach is troublesome since I want to apply the indexes at the end to make the restore more efficient (and to avoid integrity checking until the entire database is restored) Wouldn't that mean hand-editing the dumps to apply the indexes separately (or at least last)? Or can I simply concatenate all these single-table dumps and tell pg_restore to apply the indexes last? Is there a simple way to accomplish this? yuji ---- Yuji Shinozaki Computer Systems Senior Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Advanced Technologies Group (434)924-7171 Information Technology & Communication http://www.people.virginia.edu/~ys2n University of Virginia ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
