Hello, > I don't know for sure, but I don't see why it should fail - it's only > reading it, not writing data to it or making any changes. Probably it will fail... http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/sql-createdatabase.html Although it is possible to copy a database other than template1 by specifying its name as the template, this is not (yet) intended as a general-purpose "COPY DATABASE" facility. The principal limitation is that no other sessions can be connected to the template database while it is being copied. CREATE DATABASE will fail if any other connection exists when it starts; Regards, Jayadevan DISCLAIMER: "The information in this e-mail and any attachment is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
