Hi Everyone,
I am trying to import data from a backed up PostgreSQL tablespace. The server which the original data was on has been wiped.
1. I saved the tablespace onto a portable harddrive from the old server. This contains the tablespace folder (with PG_VERSION file) and a folder named 225809. This folder contains about 300gb of info.
2. Now I want to view the data on another computer. I am not sure of the best way to do this. I have tried to create a new tablespace and copy the data into it - but the OID is different and so the data cannot be read.
3. I realise now that I should have used the backup/restore function in PGAdmin III. I did not do this. Is there anyway to retrieve the data so that I can view it again?
I hope you can help and I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Chris Ewing
