I really like the idea of running pg_dump on the slave, but I don't understand
how I could do it.
Postgres on our live machine is regularly pushing WAL files to the standby.
Postgres on the standby machine is continually reading those files.
But that is all it will do. "pg_dump" just says "The database is starting up".
Could/should I have something configured differently?
Or Is this something that has changed with Postgres 9?
We're currently running Postgres 8.4.
Is this my specific reason to embark on an upgrade?
Robert.
