Hi Ron,

I read your reply in the mailing list archives as I'm not subscribed to
the list, and I'm copy-pasting a response here. Please include me as a
recipient in further replies.

I don't have emergencies yet. I'm testing the process of restoring the
database dump, and it takes more than 24 hours currently. A successful
test is vital to approve the process.

But the primary usage of pg_restore that I have is not to save me from
emergencies but to populate the dev database with recent data.


Regards,
Dimitris
