All: it would take ~4 hours to pg_restore a backup. I want to quickly create a duplicate cluster (for testing). My idea:
1. pg_ctlcreatecluster 9.1 test 2. rm /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/test/* 2. cp /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/test 3. pg_ctlcluster 9.1 test start Is this viable? If not, is there another way to create a duplicate cluster in a timely fashion? -- Wells Oliver wellsoli...@gmail.com
