Hi,
I can associate these dat names with their source tables through a
bunch of bash and vim manual operations, but I was wondering if
there's any automated method (maybe some SQL query of some catalog
table; pg_class didn't seem to have the relevant data) of making the
association.
Some background would be helpful:
1) What is producing the *.dat files?
pg_dump, as described in the Subject.
Oops, missed that.
2) What is their structure?
They're pg_dump files.
What is the full pg_dump command used?
3) What do the numbers refer to?
That's what I'm asking the list.
If relevant, the source database is v8.4, but the backup was done by
9.6 on a separate server.
$ ls -1 CDSLBXW/*dat | head
