I would copy data from the other machines to the "master" one:
on the "master", under postgres user (data only dump; -a options):
pg_dump -a -h <host1> -t registrations -U <user> <database> -F c |
pg_restore -d <database>
pg_dump -a -h <host2> -t registrations -U <user> <database> -F c |
pg_restore -d <database>
...
pg_dump -a -h <hostN> -t registrations -U <user> <database> -F c |
pg_restore -d <database>
and then do the following:
begin;
insert into tmp select distinct * from registrations;
truncate registrations;
insert into registrations select * from tmp;
commit;
