We are using Linux RedHat. Thank you. You can use tablespaces, see: 16:16 < akretschmer> ??tablespace 16:16 < rtfm_please> For information about tablespace 16:16 < rtfm_please> see http://people.planetpostgresql.org/xzilla/index.php?/archives/322-tablespace-management-variables.html 16:16 < rtfm_please> or http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/manage-ag-tablespaces.html But read also the docu about backup/restore. A simple file-system-copy on a running DB don't work as backup.
