The configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf, pg_ident.conf), plus any SSL server keys/certs you might be using --- basically, all the static text files in the toplevel $PGDATA directory. Those things are not accessible to a client so pg_dump can't dump them. Some people put these files in a different directory where they'll be caught by their regular filesystem backup procedures for the server. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
