Обсуждение: Backup Postgres database remotely

Hi All,

I am new to postgresql. I have pgadmin installed on my windows machine locally using which i m connecting to the client server and accessing the database. I want to take the backup of client database. but it seems hard the database is very large. and when i select any database and hit backup for that database it does not give me any error message but it hangs at that point. To fix this i have to restart the pgadmin. 

am i missing on something? please help.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Manasi.

Did you try to use pg_dump directly instead of pgAdmin?
