Same server. I tried a few times.

I didn’t move the db separately, but did a ‘dd’ to copy the disk to an imagefile which was converted and loaded into VMWare.

I ‘believed’ that this should keep the low level disk structure the same, but if this has corrupted the files I can drop, dump and restore, in which case how do I ‘drop’ the DB without postgres running?

Ta,

Martin.

Was the server you were backing up shut down or in backup mode when you did the 'dd' copy?
