I used Exabyte tapes for severeal years, very reliable. Sometimes there were
problems with media from different vendors. I usually used 2 tapes for parallel
backup/recover sessions and for fault tolerance. I would backup to harddisks only
in rare cases and I don't user CDs etc. for backups.

It's easy to believe you're saving money; the question is, how far are

Don't write off disk backups yet. I would have (and did) a year ago,
but in the last six months things have gotten a lot cheaper.

Yes, I'm a little wary of hard disk based systems as my sole backup. I
prefer something that allows me to have at least 2-3 different media
backups (e.g. one this week, one last week, and one the week before last).
Also, I like to be able to take a copy of the media home just because I'm

Hello, lists,
As promised, I've kept quiet for a few days about my hectic release
schedule for this tool. But some significant functionality has been
added... so here it is.
tedia2sql is a GPL'd Perl script that turns Dia UML diagrams into SQL DDL.

I'm looking into new ways of backing up the data in our lab, including
the PostgreSQL database. Currently, we have a single DDS-2 tape drive
capable of holding 8Gig compressed. However, it is slow (i.e. takes a
day to backup about 40 Gig of information), spans multiple tapes, and
makes it hard to

Yes, use contrib/oid2name and 'du', or contrib/dblink.

Hello folks!
Is there any way to know the database size of a postgres 7.2 db?
Thanks!

Thank you very much for the clarification (I've discovered something similar looking at
"http://archives.postgresql.org"; after posting my message to this newsgroup...)
Only another question:
is there the possibility of downloading a "precompiled" version (a "jar" file) of
"jdbc for
postgressql"
Title: SQL date calculation problem
Hi all,
I using postgresql 7.1.3 on RH 7.2 server. I am having trouble with
TIMEDATE calculation using the pgplsql procedural language the logic
is has follows:
FOR r IN SELECT time_span FROM t WHERE name = ''NEW'' LOOP
NEW.end_date := r.time_span + n
Hi Cyrill
According to postgresql doc there is no future for that .So you have to do
that for all tables in you database with grant.
In 7.2 any user can create table in your database so you have nothing to do
this hole future do it for you.
Perhaps in 7.3 this future will be included.
