I have a situation with multiple postgres servers running all with the
same databases and table structure. I need to periodically export the
data from each of there then merge them all into a single server. On
occasion, it's feasible for the same record (primary key) to be stored
in two or more servers
what should happen in this case?
I was using pgdump without the --insert option however I just noticed
that pgrestore will stop inserting into a table when the conflict
occurs, leaving me with an incomplete set.
Other solution:
* create the tables on the destination server without the PK or with an
other, new PK (maybe SERIAL)
* use logical replication to replicate the table from all your
source-db's to the destination table, see more here:

your problem seems as a typical task for logical replication to me. You
needs 9.4 at least.
