This might sound silly, but I am trying something basic, and having
trouble. What I want to do is unload selected rows from a table, and load
them somewhere else.
pg_dump works great if you want the whole table. I suppose I could from
one table, dump into a temp, and then pg_dump it, but tha

You can't use rsync for this.
I have a question about configuring a warm spare.
I'm on a project that's looking to deploy a fairly transaction-intensive
application (250K inserts/day) running on a linux/apache/mod_perl/postgres
setup and would like to implement an offsite warm spare (as warm as
possible). The warm spare wo
I'm using blobs for ease of management in a high
volume, distribuited content distribution system. My last version of the
application used the filesystem to manage the content, and now that I've moved
everything to the database my code (php, perl) is much more compact and
easier to manage,

I'd suggest checking harder ;-). I think an unreliable section of

It is better to normalize these arrays into separate tables

Array types can't be indexed, can't be foreign keys,
