Only copy the data directory if both servers are offline and not running and if both servers use the same version of postgres. This method is not recommended AFAIK. It is much much safer to use pg_dump/pg_restore and know that your data is consistent. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/backup-dump.html Nick
