Hello there,
One of our PostgreSQL 9.4.1 databases has been backed up as *.gz file
with the compression 9 "pg_dump -Z 9". What is the right format of
restore this file when needed? Can I run the restore from a compressed
file or I need to unzip the file first, then run pg_restore? Thanks
It depends on whether you dumped using the custom format -Fc or plain(no
-F or -Fp). If the custom format then you run pg_restore against it. If
the plain format then you will to unzip first then feed the file to psql.
What about this?
gunzip -c | foo.sql.gz | psql
gunzip -c | test_plain.gz | psql -d test_gz -U postgres
bash: test_plain.gz: command not found
gzip: compressed data not read from a terminal. Use -f to force
decompression.
For help, type: gzip -h
Null display is "NULL".
I think what you want is:
gunzip -c test_plain.gz | psql -d test_gz -U postgres
