Any chance you ever had of recovering your data is almost certainly gone because you restored into it - probably immediately destroying your deleted data - then kept on using the database for another month. If you're willing to spend a lot of money you might be able to recover some of it using hard-drive level overwritten data forensics, but I rather doubt it. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
