I am not sure if I can do it in this way.. As the are in diferent servers and 
network.

I found a paper that suggest to use pg_dump -Ft -b db_name > file.tar .... 
Transfer it to new server and you ther the pg_restore -d new_db file.tar
But as the servers have different SO.. I am not sure if it can be used... 

And another question is that in the target server there is a database there 
that we can not destroy.

Thanks for your help.

I usually pipe the output of pg_dump to psql, and thereby avoid making a copy 
of the dump output entirely.  If you want to dump in custom format, yeah, you 
would use pg_restore instead.
