Thanks for the replys.

I did a partial import without the file information. I can keep the mysql for as long as I have to keep the old backups.

The main problem are the quotaitons of file names and log messages. I of course did have a look at the man page of mysqldump - but did not find any hint for better quotation. I'd used the option --compatible=postgresql and several sed command afterwards (correcting the timestamps) but that was was not sufficient.

Anyway. Since we do not rely on incrementals long time but mostly on full backups its for us more a questions of real perfomance testing with the new database server - with a empty file table even the old mysql configuration was very fast.

The point is - I do not need really the big file table (33M+ rows) since
we will start the migration - or better finish the migration with a new
full backup and could keep the old mysql until no longer needed.

But I would like to keep as much information as possible. e.g. the
volume labels/pools. Is there a easy way to just do that?

If any one had a good Idea or documentation how to do that I would
depreciate any help.

I think it is not possible to run the dump (created by mysqldump) as is.

There are several database conversion tools available for this. That
said, I have never yet done this... it is in my mind to do, but have not
yet had the time.


First step: mysql dumps are not directly compatible with pgsql.

You must make a compatible mysql dump.

man mysqldump and look at the archives of this list. Several people have posted howtos over the years.
