We are trying to dump a 30GB+ database using pg_dump with the --file option. In the beginning everything works fine, pg_dump runs and we get a dumpfile. But when this file becomes 16GB it disappears from the filesystem, pg_dump continues working without giving an error until it finnish (even when the file does not exist)(The filesystem has free space).
Is that a plain text, tar, or custom dump (-Ft or -Fc)? Is the behavior different if you just write to stdout instead of using --file?
