I always run pg_dump with the --verbose option, and the bash script echos
$?, so there's a 25,664 line log file for me to examine which explicitly
shows the return code.
A quick search of the 9.6 pg_dump source code shows that it only
ever calls exit() with values 0 or 1. 255 would have to be coming
from some outside factor. You sure your shell script isn't
misbehaving and corrupting the reported return code?
Good to know. The RC might be from ssh (the actual command being "ssh
postgres@HOSTNAME pg_dump ...".
