This is a TODO: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Todo#ALTER Refactor handling of database attributes between pg_dump and pg_dumpall Currently only pg_dumpall emits database attributes, such as ALTER DATABASE SET commands and database-level GRANTs. Many people wish that pg_dump would do that. One proposal is to let pg_dump issue such commands if the -C switch was used, but it's unclear whether that will satisfy the demand. http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/4864f001.50...@archonet.com http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/11646.1272814...@sss.pgh.pa.us -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + It's impossible for everything to be true. + -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
