What's the trick to use --schema= with pg_dump *AND* also have the foreign server definition and the user mappings copied?
(I also included --schema=public but that changed nothing)
Create Server makes it clear it does not exist within a schema.
pg_dump has a note:
"Non-schema objects such as large objects are not dumped when -n is specified. You can add large objects back to the dump with the --large-objects switch."
The absence of any corresponding --server option in pg_dump to accomplish the same for the server non-schema object means that what you want to do is not presently possible.
Since you are doing partial dumps anyway - dump the non-schema objects first (-N *) ? then dump the desired schemas? Then just perform two restores.
