Currently, I am running pg_dump on an entire table of a database by doing: PGPASSWORD=$PGPASSWORDB /opt/data/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin/pg_dump -t RECORDER -Fc $i -U pguser -Z0 | xz -9 > "$backup_dir/$i-$timeslot-database" However, this table has a lot of rows. Is there a way I could do pg_dump on a subset of rows that match a criteria say via a sql statement?
Yes it is called COPY:): http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/interactive/sql-copy.html or its psql equivalent \copy: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/interactive/app-psql.html
Does anyone have any snippets on how to do that? Thank you
