You can try to suitably combine "pg_dump --format=plain" with
"tee" and "md5sum" such that the output stream is diverted to
both a file and a pipe-into-CRC-algorithm and eventually
compare the pipe's sum with the sum generated from the file.
But the better solution might be to stream to a filesystem
that verifies disk writes immediately. Or to a suitable RAID
array.

Thanks for this info Karsten. I will look into using "tee". As a matter
of interest, why does the format need to be plain?
Regarding the filesystem solution, the dump is currently written to a HP
RAID 10 array with an NTFS partition. What filesystems / raid arrays
have this ability?
Thanks.
