I consider this way a good practice to transport the files. This is because I have table that has more than 30GB. But if the OS was windows, couldn't split the files because postgres doesn't has this feature! Could be a good option if postgres had native. Weel, I will try this: eg: $ pg_dump postgres -U postgres -f split.txt | split --bytes=10m Thank you. --- Scott Marlowe <scott.marlowe@xxxxxxxxx> escreveu: > On Dec 15, 2007 11:42 AM, A.Burbello > <burbello3000@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi people, > > > > How can I export (dump) database more than 1 file? > > I have great table and can't split. > > Like Oracle, just set the parameter filesize and > the > > files name, and dump in several files. > > You could pipe the output of pg_dump to split, or > split it after it's > been created. > > But is there a reason for doing this or is it just > some practice you're into? > Abra sua conta no Yahoo!
