Quoting "Rob Richardson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Greetings again!
A few days ago, I visited a customer's site to talk about administering
our system, which is developed around a PostGres database. One of the
topics was how to back up the database. I described the process of
using PgAdmin to back up and restore a database, and I said a backup
should be done every night. I was asked how to automate the procedure,
and I couldn't answer. A database administrator said, "There's got to
be a way. Otherwise, PostGres wouldn't have survived". I agree with
him. The only answers I've found on the Internet involve creating a
password-less account and using that to run pg_dump. What is the
official best way to automatically back up a PostGres database?
Thank you very much.
RobR
