Hello Troels, You can use the following statements in a procedure/function: CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tt_cmdout(cmdoutput text); COPY tt_cmdout(cmdoutput) FROM PROGRAM 'pg_dump.exe <parameters>'; But note that the user must have SUPERUSER or BYPASSRLS privileges or must be table owner.

Hello, I would like to allow a co-worker to perform a backup of a database, such that the backup is saved to the database server itself. One use case is that (s)he would like an extra backup of a database, just before an application update is deployed. The co-worker
doesn't have shell access on the DB server (so no sudo option), and we would like to allow this to happen without having to involve a DBA. Is it possible to call pg_dump (or equivalent action) through a procedure/function? -- |
