Thanks again for your advices! I'm using the postgres database. The dump utility for it is pg_dump, which - as described in the documentation - allows to create a dump without shutting down the database (read only access is possible during this process than). The expected usual size of my database should be less than 1 GB (uncompressed dump). +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [EMAIL PROTECTED] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [EMAIL PROTECTED] +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
