End of Data test?

[Carol Walter <walterc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm backing up my databases on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays.  I'm  
writing a script to further automate this process.  Is there a way  
that I can test to make sure that pg_dump has actually backed up the  
entire system.  It seems  like there should be a return code or  
something that will tell me that there has been a normal completion.

Thanks,
Carol
