I have to write a 700 GB large database to a dump to clean out a lot of dead 
records on an Ubuntu server with postgres 8.3.8. What is the proper procedure 
to succeed with this - last time the dump stopped at 3.8 GB size I guess. 
Should I combine the -Fc option of pg_dump and and the split command ? 
                I thought something like 

"pg_dump -Fc test | split -b 1000m - testdb.dump" 
might work ?
