Moving Databases

От

I have two Postgresql databases - one on machine a, one on machine b.
Both are currently running.  I want to put a copy of the database on a
onto machine b.  I know I have to stop the postmaster (obviously) on
database b, but what else is there to do? Which directories do I have to
move (if that's what I have to do).  Sorry - I know this is probably
simple, but I'm rushing to meet a deadline.

On machine a:

pg_dump database > db.out

on machine b:

cat db.out | psql template1

(both as postgres superuser). Maybe you gave to create the database first
on machine b.

At least, I think this should work.... And no need to stop any postmasters..
