I am currently getting a "unexpected EOF on client connection" when running pg_dumpall from a bash shell script in cron. I have looked online to see if anyone else is having or have had this problem without any luck. I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to determine what is

I am trying to find out what PostgreSQL does when it cannot write to its SYSLOG file, whether it is permissions or the file system where the log resides is full is the problem. Does PostgreSQL stall, does it rollback the transaction it cannot log to the SYSLOG, or does it continue on as if ther

Do any of you do vulnerability scanning on your PostgreSQL database clusters? If so, what do you use to do this? We have tried Rapid7 without any luck so we are looking to see if there is anything else out there. Thanks, Sandra Arnold Senior Database Administrator Contractor to DOE/OSTI NCI,

[ADMIN] Changing default tablespace for specific users -- Is it possible?

2011-02-04 Thread Arnold, Sandra
Coming from the Oracle world we were able to have a different default tablespace for each user or for a group of users. Can you set the default tablespace to be different for a group users/schemas in PostgreSQL? Or, do you have to set the default tablespace at the database level? If you can s

I am currently using the pg_hotbackup Perl script to backup my production PostgreSQL database. However, the next production database is going to be close to a terrabyte in size. We feel that a tar cvzf command is not the correct OS backup solution to use. Instead we would like to use lvmsnaps
