You need to use a temporary table of content of your dump excluding these 
trigger using grep

Example

1) Generate backup.dump with the 


pg_dump -Fc -f backup.dump  --schema=myschema1 --schema=myschema2 -hlocalhost 
-p5432 .....

2) Use flag l to read the table of contents of your backup.dump 

Let  suppose that your Slony schema is named 'myslonycluster' then


pg_restore -l backup.dump | grep -v '_myslonycluster' > safe.toc

3) Now you can restore your two schemas using -L flag 


pg_restore -L safe.toc -d your_database backup.dump

Objet : [Slony1-general] pg_dump backups without slony triggers?
 
Hi All,

I have a Slony slave that I wish to perform some pg_dumps as backups 
from to restore elsewhere for testing. But I don't want the slony schema 
or triggers to come in the dump.

my dump right now is like follows:

pg_dump dbname --schema=myschema1 --schema=myschema2

Since I'm specifying specifically two schemas, the slony schema is not 
included. However, the slony triggers on the tables within the schemas I 
do want to copy are part of the dump. So when I run a restore, it 
attempts to create those triggers. The triggers do fail because the 
slony schema and elements don't exist, but I don't like the idea of 
having a ton of failures in my restoration when restoring this database.

Is there any way in the dump to also exclude slony objects that exist 
out of the slony schema?

Thanks,

- Brian F
