I would recommend the snapshot of the database as the technique to use. Using the pgdump and restore is messy at best. I have yet to get that to work in test, whatsoever, and the Postgres documentation is of no help.
The secondary route is to perform an "export" of all of your dspace content, if you have that kind of room. Then you don't need to necessarily worry about Postgres versioning or the messy pg_dump and restore routines. Good luck.
