As you may have read prior to this mail, the common way is to pg_dump against a file, picking up that file later with BackupExec as a regular file. We are currently (www.globant.com) using it that way, no problems at all. gb.- On Jan 30, 2008 2:15 AM, Vishal Arora wrote: > > PostgreSQL has its own inbuilt mechanism for backing up the database. you > can refer to the postgres manual online for more information. > > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/backup.html > > - Vishal > > > > > > ________________________________ > Subject: [ADMIN] Backup > Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2008 14:08:26 -0500 > From: carlucci@cae.com > To: pgsql-general@postgresql.org; pgsql-admin@postgresql.org > CC: carlucci@cae.ca > > > > > Hi, > We have a center in Europe who has just started to use PostgreSQL and > was asking me if there are any Symantec product or other products that > backup this type of database.
