Обсуждение: Looking for a script that performs full online backup of postgres in archive mode

 
Would anyone in the postgres community have a shell script that performs a full online backup of postgres?
 
Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried pg_dumpall?

Here's roughly what we do:

REMOTE="foo"
DATA="/srv/pgdata"
WAL="/var/lib/pgsql/wal-archive"
PSQL="/usr/bin/psql"
RSYNC="/usr/bin/rsync -e ssh -qxat --delete"

if [ "$1" == "data" ]; then
    # Do full backup of data directory
    ${PSQL} -c "SELECT pg_start_backup('mirror');" >/dev/null
    ${RSYNC} ${DATA} ${REMOTE}/${DATA}
    ${PSQL} -c "SELECT pg_stop_backup();" >/dev/null

elif [ "$1" == "wal" ]; then
    # Just copy the latest write-ahead logs
    ${RSYNC} ${WAL} ${REMOTE}/${WAL}
    ${RSYNC} ${DATA}/pg_xlog/ ${REMOTE}/${DATA}/pg_xlog

else
    # Don't know what you want
    echo "Usage: $0 [data|wal]"
    exit 1
fi

Full backup ex. pg_dumpall

Daily backup (dump) / database:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
#!/someshellpath like /bin/sh or /bin/bash or /bin/ksh ...
#daily.sh
#default plaintext
#usage: daily.sh [c|t|p]
#
PORT=5432
HOST="localhost"
DB="mysomedb"
DB_USER="myusername"
FORMAT="p"  # c t p=plaintext
TYPE="txt"
COMPRESS=1
case "$1" in
         c) FORMAT="c"; COMPRESS=0;;
         t) FORMAT="t";;
         p) FORMAT="p";;
esac
case "$FORMAT" in
         c) TYPE=comp ;;
         t) TYPE=tar ;;
         p) TYPE="txt" ;;
esac
day=$(date '+%d');

pg_dump -F "$FORMAT" -p "$PORT" -h "$HOST"  -U "$DB_USER"  "$DB" >
daily.$day.backup.$TYPE
[ "$COMPRESS" = 0 ] && exit 0

# compress daily.$day.backup.$TYPE
gzip daily.$day.backup.$TYPE

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Remember - test also your restore procedure.

That gives me an idea what others are doing.
 
Thank you Mark, : )
