Although mysqldump is the official solution, there's a fabulous perl script "mysqlhotcopy" that simply copies the data from MySQL tables in folders and restoring the data is as simple as copying the files back to their /var/lib/mysql/data location. I know about pg_dumpall, which creates a humongous SQL file, but is there something equivalent in the postgresql world, like a "pgsqlhotcopy" which copies data folders in a similar way as mysqlhotcopy?
