Обсуждение: Export/Import
Hello Everyone,
I am new to PostgreSQL, i have a question, i'll appreciate if anybody helps me.
How can i export/import a complete database running on one machine to another machine. I have gone through the docs, what i gather is,,that i can export only tables only..not entire database like we do in MS SQL Server.
thanks,
kuru

PostgreSQL does not have any GUI tool for that but pg_dump and pg_restore would do your job. Please read the docs for more. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/app-pgrestore.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/app-pgdump.html -- With Best Regards, Vishal Kashyap.

You would be wanting to use pg_dump It's pretty quick and efficient. Try its man page or docs.
