Hi,
We're planning to move our postgreSQL database from one CPU box to another box.
I'm considering an alternative procedure for the move as the standard one (pg_dump from the old, copy dump to the new box, psql to restore in the new) will take about 10 hours to complete. The ideia is installing the same Linux and PostgreSQL versions in the new box and copy the entire database cluster directory from the old to the new one using the scp Linux command.
Checked the locale files and they were not customized and are the same in the same box.
Which risks am I exposed in this approach?
Thank you!
