Hello all,
I have a ascii dump file based on the COPY operation.
lets say I restore this dump into a live database with applications
doing INSERTs and UPDATEs onto it.
in case the COPY of a register causes a primary key (or UNIQUE, or FK)
violation does the psql restore command try to continue the operation
until it has parsed the whole dump, or does it abort on the first
violation ?
Copy is all or nothing. It'll abort as soon as a violation happens.
the bulkloader on pgfoundry (http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgbulkload/)
can apparently handle this for you...
