Hi all,
masterdb01 -> slave01 -> slave02 -> slave03
testmaster01 (Full copy from masterdb01)
I'm trying to refresh my main DB, by running this command on my test server:
ssh postgres@slave02 "/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pg_dump --exclude-table-data='junk.*' --format=custom master_db_name" | /usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pg_restore --dbname=master_db_name_temp --exit-on-error
But, I got the following error after few seconds:
pg_dump: Dumping the contents of table "invoices" failed: PQgetResult() failed.
pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR: canceling statement due to conflict with recovery
DETAIL: User was holding a relation lock for too long.
pg_dump: The command was: COPY dm.invoices (invoice_id, format_version, ts_issue, ts_ack, customer_id, code, tag, account_data, customer_data, invoice_data, invoice_items_data) TO stdout;
If I run the pg_dump from the MASTER DB, it runs ok. But as the DB is 2 TB, I just can't let it coping from Production. It has to be from a slave server (I've also tried to copy from another slave. I get the same error).
What am I doing wrong? How can I solve the problem?
* I've sent the same e-mail to pgsql-general
Thanks;
Lucas
