In order to make a filesystem backup you need to either: - shutdown the database - run "pg_start_backup" (make SURE that you run pg_stop_backup" when done) http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/backup-file.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/continuous-archiving.html#BACKUP-TIPS -- http://yves.zioup.com gpg: 4096R/32B0F416 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
