Hi there! I'm running this command: *(Trying to copy a full DB (2TB) from a hot-standby server to a master (test) server)*
ssh postgres@myslaveserver "/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pg_dump --exclude-table-data='junk.*' -—format=custom master_db" | /usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pg_restore --dbname=master_db_temp --exit-on-error —-verbose Then, after 3 GB I got this error: pg_dump: Dumping the contents of table "invoices" failed: PQgetResult() failed. pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR: canceling statement due to conflict with recovery DETAIL: User was holding a relation lock for too long. pg_dump: The command was: COPY dm.invoices (invoice_id, format_version, ts_issue, ts_ack, customer_id, code, tag, account_data, customer_data, invoice_data, invoice_items_data) TO stdout; I've tried the pg_dump command even with: "--no-unlogged-table-data" option, but it was unsuccessful ( http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/e1tutdo-0001hb...@wrigleys.postgresql.org ) DB size: 2 TB How can I solve the problem? What's going on? Thanks
