Обсуждение: How to save and restore a template database ?
Hello, We have a question concerning backup / restore of database. Is it right if we say that for having a complete backup, we have do : 1. use pg_dumpall 2. do a backup of the modified "template1" database with pg_dump ? Our question is how to save and restore a template database, as "template1" ? Regards, Agnès BOCCHINO & Alexandra DANTE

Is it not doing so? What version of PostgreSQL are you using? -- Michael Fuhr

We redo this morning the test but with a modified template1, and yes it works fine Alexandra, Agnès
