Hello,
I created in-memory database but the problem is all the data will be accessed from main memory .when ever the system is restarted the entire data that is in the tables will lost.Is there any way to dump all the data in to local hard disk before restarting the system or any similar method to save the data in to a permanent storage.
Thanks,
Avin.

Subject: Re: In memory Database for postgres
Sorry I forgot about create tablespace script - this is the SQL script:
CREATE TABLESPACE ram_space LOCATION '/mnt/ram0/pgspace';
And then:
CREATE TABLE (...) TABLESPACE ram_space;
and table is in memory.
